Assuring Academic Standards by Building Trust in Academics Judgements: Development and Implementation of an Institution-Wide Framework

摘要

This paper provides an overview of a two year project that is developing and implementing an institution-wide framework to support comprehensive quality assurance of assessment standards. Progress is here reported at the one year mark. The abstract reports on the background to, and significance of, the work. It then describes each of the components of the model and how they collectively allow the institution, and all associated stakeholders, to have greater trust in the judgements academics make of students' work. The paper makes clear that the framework can be applied in any institution.
