Culminating Tasks – End of Unit Assessments (these are not summative in the IB Sense)

Summative - End of year tests / Practice Examinations (IB2)

Formal – IB Internal Assessments and Final Exams

Performance in Formal IB Assessment which is significantly different from predicted can cancel any university acceptance

Each Subject has its own set of Subject Objectives

Subject objectives describe both learning and skills in a subject

Learning Objectives are hierarchical (in steps)

NA Not currently assessed

Very Poor Minimal achievement in terms of the objectives.

Poor Very limited achievement against all the objectives. The student has difficulty in understanding the required knowledge and skills and is unable to apply them fully in normal situations, even with support.

Mediocre Limited achievement against most of the objectives, or clear difficulties in some areas. The student demonstrates a limited understanding of the required knowledge and skills and is only able to apply them fully in normal situations with support.

Satisfactory A good general understanding of the required knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them effectively in normal situations. There is occasional evidence of the skills of analysis, synthesis and evaluation.

Good A consistent and thorough understanding of the required knowledge and skills, and the ability to apply them in a variety of situations. The student generally shows evidence of analysis, synthesis and evaluation where appropriate and occasionally demonstrates originality and insight.

Economics guide 97

Distinguish AO2 Make clear the differences between two or more concepts or items.

Draw AO4 Represent by means of a labelled, accurate diagram or graph, using a pencil. A ruler (straight edge) should be used for straight lines. Diagrams should be drawn to scale. Graphs should have points correctly plotted (if appropriate) and joined in a straight line or smooth curve.

Evaluate AO3 Make an appraisal by weighing up the strengths and limitations.

Examine AO3 Consider an argument or concept in a way that uncovers the assumptions and interrelationships of the issue.

Explain AO2 Give a detailed account including reasons or causes.

Identify AO4 Provide an answer from a number of possibilities.

Justify AO3 Give valid reasons or evidence to support an answer or conclusion.

Label AO4 Add labels to a diagram.

Outline AO1 Give a brief account or summary.

Plot AO4 Mark the position of points on a diagram.

Show AO4 Give the steps in a calculation or derivation.

Show that AO4 Obtain the required result (possibly using information given) without the formality of proof. “Show that” questions do not generally require the use of a calculator.
