<p>The first table on this screen shows how the the overall grades for the

submissions are calculated. The overall grades are a weighted sum of
|

two components.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ol><li>The teacher's grade for the student's (initial) assessment of their own work.
|
||||
This can be termed the "grading grade". Once the student has
|
||||
submitted their work the assessment is not revised. The student is NOT asked
|
||||
to re-assess their work each time they resubmit their work. The grade given to
|
||||
student's assessment is relavant to the student's performance but it is not as
|
||||
important as the (teacher's) assessment of the work. In general it should be
|
||||
given a lower weight than...
|
||||
<li>The grade given by the teacher to the student pieces of work. These
|
||||
assessments are the normally the main assessment element of an exercise
|
||||
assignment. When the students are allowed to make
|
||||
more than one submission the teacher can decide whether the final grade
|
||||
for the exercise should be the average grade of a student's submissions or
|
||||
the grade from the student's best submission.
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
<p>This page allows the teacher to see the one or more descriptions for the
|
||||
Exercise, the student assessments and the student submissions. These items
|
||||
can be retitled, viewed or deleted by using the various links on the page.
|
||||
The page also shows which piece of works have been submitted after the
|
||||
deadline, that is those submitted late.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>These two components are weighted as deemed appropriate for the
|
||||
assignment. The teacher can, for example, weight the (initial) assessment grade
|
||||
(the grading grade) very low, even zero. In this case the student grade is
|
||||
determined largely by or entirely by the grades given to their submissions. The
|
||||
two weighting factors can be changed at any time during the exercise, the effect
|
||||
of any change on the grades seen in the Grades page and in the Final Grades
|
||||
list is immediate.</p>
|
||||
<p>The first table on this screen shows the teacher's submission(s). Normally
|
||||
there is only one. This is the decsription of the exercise, it will
|
||||
normally contain instructions on what work should be done. If the teacher
|
||||
has submitted more then one description they are listed here. Note that
|
||||
once the Exercise is underway these submissions should <b>NOT</b> be
|
||||
deleted. It is, however, safe to delete the teacher submissions while the
|
||||
Exercise is still in the Set Up phase.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The second table is used to set the two options for the League Table. This table
|
||||
is (optionally) shown to the students at the end of the assignment. If the
|
||||
number of entries is set to a number larger than zero then the table is
|
||||
displayed to the student when the assignment is in its final phase. The other
|
||||
option determines whether student names are shown in the table. Note the League
|
||||
Table as seen by the teacher always shows studnet names regardless of this setting.
|
||||
<p>The second table shows the student's (initial) assessment of their own work.
|
||||
It shows the grade the student has given their work. If the teacher has
|
||||
assessed the work, this table will also contain the "grading
|
||||
grade" awarded to his assessment. This grade reflects how well the
|
||||
student's assessment agrees with the teacher's assessment. The student's
|
||||
assessment can be viewed. There is link on that page to change the grading
|
||||
grade should the teacher wish to do so.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The third table lists the submissions and their grades if the teacher has
|
||||
assessed them. Submissions can be regraded or safely deleted. An asterix
|
||||
(*) against a submission means that the student is allow to submit another
|
||||
piece of work. For a particular student, this option can be easily changed
|
||||
by simply re-assessing their submission and clicking on the appropriate
|
||||
button at the foot of the assessment page, the assessment itself need not
|
||||
be changed. Late work is shown with the date submitted in red. The late
|
||||
flag can be cleared by clicking on the link.</p>

|
||||
<p>The Administration page also lists the teacher's submissions (the decriptions of
|
||||
the Exercise), the students' (initial) assessment of their own work, and the students'
|
||||
submissions. These tables allow all these items, where appropriate, to be re-titled,
|
||||
deleted, viewed or re-assessed. This part of the page can be used to monitor the
|
||||
students' progress throughout the course of the exercise.

<p align="center"><b>Comparison of Assessments</b></p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>In an exercise it is usual for a piece of work to be assessed twice. A
|
||||
student assesses their work before submitting it and the teacher then
|
||||
(re)assesses the work. The teacher's assessment uses the student's
|
||||
assessment as the starting point. An exercise allows the teacher to award
|
||||
a proportion of the grade to the student's assessment, the remainder of
|
||||
the grade is allocated to the teacher's assessment of the work. (The
|
||||
maximum grades for these are called "Grade for Student
|
||||
Assessments" and "Grade for Submissions" respectively.) Note
|
||||
that the grade from the student's assessment is not used. The student's
|
||||
assessment is given a grade based on how well it matches the teacher's
|
||||
assessment.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>The degree of agreement between the student's and teacher's assessment is
|
||||
based on the differences between the scores in individual elements
|
||||
(actually the squared differences are used). The mean of these differences
|
||||
must to converted into a meaningful grade. The "Comparison of
|
||||
Assessments" option allows the teacher a degree of control on how
|
||||
these comparisons are converted into grades.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>To get some idea on what effect this option has, take the (fairly simple)
|
||||
case of an assessment which has ten Yes/No questions. For example the
|
||||
assessment might use questions like "Is the chart correctly formatted?",
|
||||
"Is the calculated profit $100.66?", etc. Assume there are ten such
|
||||
questions. When the "Very Lax" setting is chosen, prefect
|
||||
agreement between the student's and teacher's assessment gives a grade of
|
||||
100%, if there is only one question which does not match the grade is 90%,
|
||||
two disagreements give a grade of 80%, three
|
||||
disagreements 70%, etc.. That might seem very reasonable and you might be thinking
|
||||
why is this option called a "Very Lax" comparison. Well, consider
|
||||
the case of a student doing a completely random assessment where the
|
||||
answers of the ten questions are simply
|
||||
guessed. On average this would result in five of the ten questions being
|
||||
matched. So the "monkey's" assessment would get a grade of around
|
||||
50%. The situation gets a little more sensible with the "Lax"
|
||||
option, then
|
||||
the random assessment gets around 20%. When the "Fair" option is
|
||||
chosen, random guessing will result in a zero grade most of the
|
||||
time. At this level, a grade of 50% is given when the two assessments agree
|
||||
on eight questions of the ten. If three questions are in disagreement then
|
||||
the grade given is 25%. When the option is set to "Strict" having
|
||||
two questions out of sync gives a grade of 40%. Moving into the "Very
|
||||
Strict" territory a disagreement in just two questions drops the grade to
|
||||
35% and having a single question in disagreement gives a grade of 65%.</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>This example is sightly artifical as most assessments usually have elements
|
||||
which have a range of values rather than just Yes or No. In those cases the
|
||||
comparison is likely to result in somewhat higher grades then the values
|
||||
indicated above. The various levels (Very Lax, Lax, Fair...) are given so
|
||||
that the teacher can fine tune the comparisons. If they feel that the grades
|
||||
being given for assessments are too low then this option should be moved
|
||||
towards the "Lax" or even "Very Lax" choices. And
|
||||
alternatively, if the grades for the student's assessments are, in general,
|
||||
felt to be too high this option should be moved to either the
|
||||
"Strict" or "Very Strict" choices. It is really a
|
||||
matter of trial and error with the best starting point being the
|
||||
"Fair" option.</p>
