6.8Use of Turnitin.com6.9Using Turnitin to prevent plagiarismThis is a very powerful tool in the prevention and detection of plagiarism, and it is vital that Internal Assessments for IB are ALL first passed through Turnitin, failure to detect plagiarism before work is submitted for external moderation can result in a failing grade for IB chemistry, and in some circumstances, result in a fail for the whole IB diploma. 6.10Using the GradeMark feature of TurnitinIn addition for checking for plagiarism, Turnitin also has a marking function called GradeMark. This allows the teacher to grade the submitted work using a combination of individual typed comments and comments from a set rubric. The Chemistry Department is in the process of systematically introducing this style of marking for most formally assessed work, like the literature review and the assessed practicals. Teachers are to use set grading rubrics for specific tasks to help improve marking by improving the quality of the feedback and to enable better standardization across the department of grading assessed work. 6.11Formative/summative assessment of key pieces of assessed work:Each piece of assessed work should have two main areas of formative/summative assessment:
7 = exceptional work that goes beyond what would normally be expected, flair would form a key aspect of this criteria. 6 = Excellent work that has met all the criteria and demonstrates deep understanding and a high level of effort. 5 = Good, conscientious work that largely meets the criteria for the assignment but contains some errors or misunderstandings. 4 = Work which contains a substantial number of errors or serious misunderstanding. Pupils working consistently at this level are a cause for concern.
6.12Formative/Summative marking of h/w or non assessment based mark:All work within chemistry should be marked using the following criteria:
In keeping with the School Philosophy on grades, not all pieces of work require a summative grade. Departments/subject teachers should decide which pieces of work are deserving/require a summative grade. It is NOT expected that every piece of work receive a level 1-7 grade.
6.13Spelling, punctuation and grammar:Teachers should correct spelling in accordance with the school marking policy, additionally 1 incorrect keyword spelling should be identified. The teacher, at the bottom of the page should then correctly spell this word. Within each piece of marked work at least two areas of incorrect grammar, punctuation or sentence structure should be corrected. This should only be minimal to avoid disheartening students and overburden teachers. Maximum turn around time for homework should be about one week. 6.14Assessment trackersStudents should be encouraged to develop their own learning and expand on formative assessment provided by staff within the faculty. To aid students in identifying areas they have been successful in and areas they need to develop, each student will use assessment-tracking forms to structure their thoughts. The tracking form should be updated by students, with the help of the teacher after each piece of core assessment (one or two per half-term). This form will identify several core components:
Student tracking forms should be stuck into their books or placed into their files. It is not expected that IB students use these forms. 6.14.1Chemistry Department Assessment Tracker
