A bank of nine course evaluation questions about marking criteria and assessment standards, grouped into what students understood before submitting, what they understood once marks came back, and open questions. It is for quality officers and programme teams who want to know why students rate the clarity of criteria low. The questions follow research by Bloxham and colleagues and by O'Donovan, Price and Rust showing that students learn standards by using them. Koji can ask them as a short conversation with a follow-up on each answer.

What's in this question bank

Before submitting

  1. How well did you understand what a good answer to this assignment would look like?
  2. Did you see examples of work at different grades before you submitted?
  3. Did you get to try the marking criteria yourself, for example by marking a sample?

After the mark came back

  1. Did you understand why your work received the mark it did?
  2. Did the comments on your work match the marking criteria you were given?
  3. Was it explained to you how markers check that they agree with each other?

In your own words

  1. What, if anything, could you not work out about what was expected?
  2. Which assignment, if any, had a mark that surprised you, and what happened?
  3. What one change would have made the standard clearer to you?
