Exam-style question
Try this first
A student has evaluated an outcome by stating that it meets all of its requirements. They have also identified two possible improvements, but have only named them without explaining how they would improve the outcome. The student obtained feedback from an independent user who carried out a realistic task. The student reports what the user said but does not explain whether the feedback shows that the outcome met its requirements. Evaluate the likely level and explain what the student should add to improve the evaluation.
Model answer
What a good answer should say
- The evaluation is most likely Level 3.
- The student has given full or nearly full consideration to how well the outcome meets its requirements, and useful, realistic independent feedback has been obtained.
- However, the improvements have only been named, so the consideration of them is limited.
- The feedback has been reported but not evaluated or discussed meaningfully.
Explanation
Why this works
Level 3 matches useful and realistic independent feedback that is not meaningfully evaluated, together with limited consideration of improvements. Level 4 would require detailed consideration of improvements and meaningful evaluation and discussion of the feedback.
