Assessment Board Operations

Student Data Services
Overview – Assessment Board Operations
• Curriculum designed around a well established model of modular programmes, with some limited exceptions (eg some non-modular professional programmes)
• Student assessments all tracked centrally (“SITS”)
• Assessment Board paperwork generated from a single source to one standard
Assessment data management
• All recording of attempts, referrals, deferrals etc fully integrated.
• Assessment marks are recorded by component (eg examination, assignment etc)
• Marks provided by completion of centrally provided mark sheets, either as electronic spreadsheets or completed by hand.
• Administrators key data into central system.
Board operation /1
• Central production of Module pre-board / board paperwork via central database facility
• Board conducted with ‘Visualiser’ (camera-driven OHP) or electronically displayed (Wm Morgan room)
• Following Module board, marks are amended as necessary and coded as “agreed”
• Progression and award calculations run centrally
Board operation /2
• Progression/Award Board paperwork production by programme administrators to a standard format via central database facility
• Progression/Award Boards take place: either paper-based (with ‘Visualiser’) or electronic display
• Post-board - Progressions and Awards confirmation undertaken centrally
• Transcripts and result letters produced by programme administrators. Increasing availability of student on-line access to module results.

Recent Improvements
• Mark sheets directly generated from central record: assists in identifying remaining incorrect module registrations
• Annual improvements to paperwork presentation, recording of marks, procedures, staff skills etc
• Focus on rule-based electronic processing (eg updates of progressions and award calculation)
• Experimenting with ‘browser-based’ mark input for distributed mark input (remote administrators etc)
• Further access for students to on-line results
