About this module

How involved are you in moderation processes in your context? How transparent are assessment processes to your students? Have you ever validated an assessment to ensure it measures what it was designed to test? Throughout this module, you will have the opportunity to consider what validation and moderation mean to you in terms of your classroom context. You will look at examples of best practice and strategies from different higher education contexts to review your own practice. In the final assessment you will suggest improvements in the moderation and validation practices for your institution.
