  6. Assessable elements: • the focus of assessment • the valued features of the KLA

  7. Assessable elements SCIENCE • Knowledge and understanding • Investigating • Communicating • Reflecting SOSE • Knowledge and understanding • Investigating • Communicating • Participating • Reflecting

  8. Assessable elements and descriptors Assessable elements identify the valued features of the KLA about which evidence of student learning is collected and assessed Descriptors identify the qualities associated with each assessable element, for each A – E grade

  9. Assessable elements and descriptors • support teachers to make judgments about the quality of student achievement • help develop consistency of teacher judgments

  10. Developing task-specific descriptors

  11. Descriptors of quality

  12. Consider this example:Year 7 ‘Food webs’ task Which Science assessable elements would relate to this task? How could more specific information be added to the assessable elements to more closely reflect the task?
