How to use this teacher support material

[lauerz]

This teacher support material is designed to support new and experienced teachers in the application of the internal assessment criteria for the group 4 courses. The criteria can be found in the Diploma Programme Biology guide, Chemistry guide and Physics guide (published March 2007).

The first part has three sections of general guidance for teachers. These focus on the design criterion, errors and uncertainties, and manipulative skills. To look at these, simply select the section you wish to look at from the menu on the right.

The second part shows the application of the criteria in the assessment of practical work. It consists of a series of investigations or part investigations by students that have been assessed by moderators using the assessment criteria. To look at the investigations featured in the assessed student work, select the overview table from the menu on the right and select a specific investigation by clicking on the title. Each investigation can also be accessed by selecting the link that leads directly to it from the menu on the right.
