摘要

摘要评分方案是确保学生作业评估公平性的一种工具。公平的主要特征是,不同的分数会给同一项工作授予相同的分数,由此产生的分数有效地区分了不同水平的学生。本研究通过分析英国一所研究密集型大学在现实世界中使用不同类型的评分方案所产生的分数分布,重点关注评估的辨别能力。该分析表明,在定性评估中,分数分布不受所用评分方案特征的影响。相反,它表明所使用的分配类型对分数分布有显著影响,这些影响有时是违反直觉的。标记方案不太可能成为形成标记分布的有效工具。为了确定评估方法的有效性,我们需要询问数据,而不是做出假设。

Mark distribution is affected by the type of assignment but not by features of the marking scheme in a biomedical sciences department of a UK university
Abstract Marking schemes are a tool to ensure fairness in assessment of student work. Key features of fairness are that different markers would award the same mark to the same work and that the resulting marks effectively discriminate between different levels of student attainment. This study focuses on the ability of assessment to discriminate by analysing the mark distributions resulting from the use of different types of marking scheme in a real-world setting in a research-intensive UK university. This analysis shows that, in qualitative assessment, the mark distribution is unaffected by features of the marking scheme used. Instead, it shows that the type of assignment used has a significant effect on the mark distribution and that these effects are sometimes counterintuitive. Marking schemes are unlikely to be an effective tool in shaping mark distributions. To determine the effectiveness of approaches to assessment, we need to interrogate data rather than make assumptions.
