Moderation of Pre-accredited Delivery
What is moderation?
Why undertake moderation?
Moderation of Pre-accredited Delivery
1. Teachers and/or program planners, presenting, analysing, discussing and documenting adjustments to the content and delivery of their pre accredited programs.
2. Unlike moderation of accredited courses, pre accredited moderation evaluates the program content and delivery not the design and use of assessment tools.
3. Moderation is a collaborative, peer appraisal process that promotes a shared understanding of what constitutes quality program design, delivery and outcomes for learners.
