testing assessments
I grade using practical assessments, before the class I give the students an outline of what the grading procedure consists of. So when they begin the practical assignment or test. They know exactly what I am looking for. When the practical is finished, they return the outline and I grade it, and return it the next day. The student can then read and see what they need to improve on.If they are weak in a certain area, they know what to work on.
Your method of assessment reduces questions about your grading particularly on essay tests and the like.
