These documents help teachers keep in mind the End-of-Course Outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s normal for there to be a bit of discrepancy, although it should be minimal if the proper steps are taken when preparing to correct exams. Here are a few guidelines for marking oral or written production exams:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>BEFORE MARKING:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Record oral interaction exams for &#8230;01 and &#8230;02 courses, so you are able to devote your entire attention to the learner as you go through the interaction. This will also allow you to give fair time and consideration to marking the exam afterward.<\/li>\n<li>Learn what the evaluations are about by studying the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.education.gouv.qc.ca\/fileadmin\/site_web\/documents\/dpse\/educ_adulte_action_comm\/Prog_English-as-a-second-language_FBD_en.pdf\" class=\"mtli_attachment mtli_pdf\">end of course outcomes<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.education.gouv.qc.ca\/references\/publications\/resultats-de-la-recherche\/detail\/article\/diversified-basic-education-program-secondary-cycle-two-english-as-a-second-language\/\">DED<\/a>\u2019s for each course you teach.<\/li>\n<li>Look at the exams and the Correction Guides in order to understand the expectations of both the oral and written exams. Study the roles that you and the learner have to play.<\/li>\n<li>Become familiar with the <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BzM8CMxVqqHgT2pMT0phcW9tcW8\">Examination Grids<\/a>:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Compare with the <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BzM8CMxVqqHgWHlqMGhMWk9CQ3M\">Instructional Grids<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Highlight words and phrases<\/li>\n<li>Consider the incremental differences between benchmarks in the Grids of various courses and levels.<\/li>\n<li>Interpret the meaning of each benchmark.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<li>Situate the learner\u2019s ESL level, particularly if you need to mark exams in many different levels. This will set a baseline and ensure fair correction practises. Verify the competency level of the learner using the \u2018Development of Competencies\u2019 1-page summaries found on the ESL website or the charts found in Chapter 3 of the DBE ESL Program.<\/li>\n<li>Practise marking. Becoming proficient with the new exams and tools is like any other skill, which will improve through repetition. Use student productions on the ESL website, either on your own or with colleagues. Set up learning situations and mark the productions as though they are exams.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>DURING MARKING:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Get a general impression of the learner\u2019s production. Take time to listen or read through the entire production before beginning to mark. You may need to do this more than once.<\/li>\n<li>Review the Grids and each Competency Summary if needed to set a baseline before you begin to mark.<\/li>\n<li>At first, you may find it easier to mark using the <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BzM8CMxVqqHgT2pMT0phcW9tcW8\">Examination Grid<\/a>s and <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0BzM8CMxVqqHgWHlqMGhMWk9CQ3M\">Instructional Grids<\/a> together.<\/li>\n<li>Mark the exam in pencil just in case you need to revise what you have done.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If in doubt, use your professional judgement. Don\u2019t be afraid to re-listen and re-read, or review any of the documents used before marking.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.accompagnementfga.ca\/esl\/training\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-22790\" src=\"http:\/\/www.accompagnementfga.ca\/esl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2016\/06\/back_button1-300x92.png\" alt=\"back_button1\" width=\"140\" height=\"43\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.accompagnementfga.ca\/esl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2016\/06\/back_button1-300x92.png 300w, https:\/\/www.accompagnementfga.ca\/esl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/22\/2016\/06\/back_button1.png 380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 140px) 100vw, 140px\" \/><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=\u00a0\u00bbtransparent\u00a0\u00bb border_style=\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bb][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h1><\/h1>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=\u00a0\u00bbrow\u00a0\u00bb use_row_as_full_screen_section=\u00a0\u00bbno\u00a0\u00bb type=\u00a0\u00bbfull_width\u00a0\u00bb text_align=\u00a0\u00bbleft\u00a0\u00bb css_animation=\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bb][vc_column][vc_separator type=\u00a0\u00bbtransparent\u00a0\u00bb border_style=\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bb][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row row_type=\u00a0\u00bbrow\u00a0\u00bb use_row_as_full_screen_section=\u00a0\u00bbno\u00a0\u00bb type=\u00a0\u00bbgrid\u00a0\u00bb text_align=\u00a0\u00bbleft\u00a0\u00bb padding_top=\u00a0\u00bb22&Prime; padding_bottom=\u00a0\u00bb22&Prime; css_animation=\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bb][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb2\/6&Prime;][vc_single_image image=\u00a0\u00bb22663&Prime; img_size=\u00a0\u00bbfull\u00a0\u00bb qode_css_animation=\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bb][\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb4\/6&Prime;][vc_row_inner row_type=\u00a0\u00bbrow\u00a0\u00bb type=\u00a0\u00bbfull_width\u00a0\u00bb use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=\u00a0\u00bbno\u00a0\u00bb text_align=\u00a0\u00bbleft\u00a0\u00bb css_animation=\u00a0\u00bb\u00a0\u00bb][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]It is highly recommended that teachers do a collective correction so as to have a common understanding and a baseline for grading.
