QMU staff now have many years’ experience of moderating assessment, both within programme teams, and with collaborative partner (CP) staff. Our CP provision is scaling up, and this raises the question of how our moderation practices need to adapt, to be sustainable. And how can we ensure that our Moderators are supported in their work?
This first Moderator Network session will:
- Facilitate contact between moderators across the University
- Encourage the exchange of ideas and practices between QMU moderators and programme areas
- Seek joint solutions to challenges as they emerge.
The programme:
