Continuous
moderation is the corner stone of professional development and is
vital to the consistent application of standards but the reality
is that it rarely happens. Why doesn't it happen? Because it's not
practical!
Putting teachers in control MAPS changes ICT moderation for ever. With teachers controlling
what appears in their portfolios, E-portfolios are online and available
all day, everyday!
Annotations
and Moderation Notes How do you assess a child's progress
in an activity based on a piece of work alone without the
discourse between pupil and teacher together with annotations
on the work itself? MAPS goes some way to meeting these challenges
by allowing teachers to attach virtual post it notes to a
child's work. These can be simple feedback messages for the
pupil or can even be moderation notes for other teachers looking
at your assessment
