Additional Assessment for HSC English
Order Description
Additional Assessment for subject: EML442
This Additional Assessment (AA) will give you the opportunity to respond to the feedback you
received from your marker for your first assessment item. The following revision process allows you
the opportunity to improve on what you submitted for Assessment Item One and achieve a satisfactory
level of achievement in this subject. On successful completion of the AA a PS grade can be awarded
- the marking of an AA assessment item receives a PS/FL grade only. The content and submission
guidelines for Assessment Item One, as well as the subject outline Assessment Item One information,
should be carefully consulted as part of your AA revision and submission process. The submission
process for this Additional Assessment is shown in Step 3 below. Please ensure you follow these
steps in completing your Additional Assessment:
STEP 1
Please work with the Assessment Item One as it was returned to you after it was marked (make a word
doc copy for you to work on in your AA process), and then add the table (Step 2 below) at the end
of the assessment item. Leave the marker comments and corrections/suggestions in the margins and
all marking records (remember the marker will have a copy of your original, marked assessment
item). Leave the feedback sheet attached at the end of the AA word doc assessment item.
STEP 2
Create a 2 column table using the following headings:
Column 1: Marker Suggestion/Comment/Feedback
Column 2: My response to the Suggestion/Comment/Feedback
(N.B. All corrections/additions/changes have been highlighted with yellow throughout the revised
assessment item.)
• In column 1, cut and paste the original comment or error indicated and state the page it came
from.
• In column 2, explain how you have addressed this within the revised additional assessment item.
• Any text you remove from the original, marked assessment item please show with a strikethrough
line and also highlight in yellow: e.g. 21st century literacies
• Any text you add in the assessment item highlight with yellow: e.g. 21st century literacies
• If there is a comment that states there is a need to correct a consistent error throughout the
assessment item and it is indicated only the first time for you, you should create one entry only
for this item in the table, and then ensure you correct all instances of these errors throughout
the assessment item to improve the assessment item. e.g. 21st centry litercayies 21st century
literacies
• You should create one table entry for grammatical, spelling, punctuation, expression flaws and
correct them throughout the assessment item with a strikethrough line through errors and highlight
with yellow: e.g. 21st centry litercayies and then include the correction next to them and
highlight with yellow e.g. 21st century literacies
• You should create one table entry for corrections to references/citations and correct them
throughout the assessment item with a strikethrough line through errors and highlight with yellow:
e.g. .( 2012 G Henderson page 212) and then include the correction next to them and highlight with
yellow e.g. (Henderson, 2012, p.212).
Here are some examples of this process in creating the end-assessment item table to guide your
planning and preparation:
Column 1: Marker Suggestion/Comment/Feedback
Column 2: My response to the Suggestion/Comment/Feedback
(N.B. All corrections/additions/changes have been highlighted with yellow throughout the revised
assessment item.)
e.g.
1. The URL did not work (comment on page 1)
The URL has been located, updated and tested within part 1 of the revised assignment.
e.g.
2. Elaborate and explain. Make explicit links to the unit of work. (comment page 4)
I have elaborated and discussed the quality of the lesson/strategy and provided links to the unit
to support my discussion. I have re-visited modules 3 and 4 and used references to support my
discussion
e.g.
3. You have not addressed the task (page 5).
I have reviewed the task – and I have used the understandings I developed from modules 3 and 4, and
my reading, to address the specific requirements of the task
e.g.
4. Referencing is a problem throughout your assessment item (General comment at the end of the
marking feedback sheet)
All in text citations have been checked as has the Reference List. I have checked the APA 6th
Guidelines as per CSU policy.
e.g.
5. The text contains grammatical, punctuation and spelling errors, including inconsistent use of
tense throughout. (General comment at the end of the marking feedback sheet)
The text has been revised and corrected. Tense, punctuation, spelling and grammar are now correct.
