About this document

Moderation of Module Marks Explained by Rio Carthiis is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Moderation of module marks is done in four circumstances: 1) to ensure consistency between assessors, 2) to prevent an abnormal number of fails or first class honors, 3) to prevent optional module choice from disadvantaging students, and 4) to ensure assessments do not routinely require moderation. Moderation involves statistical analysis and potentially adjusting marks through scaling to meet expected distributions while preserving rank order.
