ASSESSMENT METHOD

The University of Warwick is committed to providing the best quality learning experiences for its students. As part of its lesson observation and moderation procedures, it expects to:

be provided with a recording of the student’s teaching practice so that it can undertake remote moderation (if the candidate is undertaking the online assessment route) OR

1) I agree to the student recording their teaching using an institutional device and I will take responsibility for supporting the student to share these recordings with Warwick staff to gain feedback and advice and for moderation purposes. Once the University of Warwick is in possession of these recordings, they will be stored on University of Warwick servers based in the EU. The recordings will only be shared with education professionals approved by the University and are visible to no one else. The recordings will only be used to improve teaching and will remain on the secure servers for the duration of the student’s studies.

2) I agree to provide the student with access to our institutional video recording platform to record their teaching. I agree to provide Warwick University staff and other education professionals approved by the University with access to these recordings on our institutional video recording platform for moderation purposes.

3) I agree to undertake an in-person moderation meeting with Warwick University staff at my institution. I am aware that this will incur an additional cost of £700 and that this cost will be borne by the student.
