Asesu Myfyrwyr

Asesu Myfyrwyr

Cyfrifoldeb y canolfannau cydweithredol yw rheoli proses asesu cynlluniau dilysedig PC, dan oruchwyliaeth Prifysgol Cymru.

Caiff asesiadau eu datblygu gan staff yn y ganolfan gydweithredol ond rhaid i arholwyr allanol a benodir gan Brifysgol Cymru eu cymeradwyo. Caiff yr asesiadau eu mapio yn erbyn canlyniadau dysgu’r modiwl fel y’i cymeradwyir gan y Brifysgol.

Mae cynrychiolwyr Prifysgol Cymru, gan gynnwys yr arholwyr allanol, yn mynd i’r bwrdd arholi lle caiff yr holl farciau a chanlyniadau gradd eu cadarnhau gan sicrhau bod y broses yn cael ei chynnal yn unol â rheoliadau PC

  • Mae’r adnoddau canlynol wedi’u cynllunio i’w defnyddio gan staff i gyfoethogi dulliau asesu o fewn rhaglenni astudio.

    Mae’r llawlyfr yn cynnig trosolwg o’r canlynol, inter alia:

    • Strategaethau asesu
    • Dulliau asesu
    • Gosod lefelau asesu priodol
    • Datblygu meini prawf asesu priodol
    • Dulliau marciog
    • Rheoli llên-ladrad
    • Cefnogi myfyrwyr sydd ag anawsterau dysgu penodol.

    Mae hwn yn adnodd allweddol i’r holl staff sy’n ymwneud ag asesu ar raglenni Prifysgol Cymru.

    Mae’r adnodd ar gael yn y Gymraeg, Arabeg, Tsieinëeg a Sbaeneg:

  • Dylwch ddanfon holl asesiadau bwriededig sy’n cyfrannu tuag at gwobr terfynol pôb cwrs i’r Brifysgol i gael eu cadarnhau. Mae rhain yn cynnwys arholiadau, traethodau, gwaith cwrs, profion dosbarth, a phrosiectau.

    Dydy hi ddim yn angenrheidiol i ddanfon gwaith lefel 4 ar gyfer graddau cychwynnol, heblaw bod unrhyw gwaith sy’n cael ei wneud yn ystod y lefel yma yn cyfrannu tuag at gowbr terfynol y cwrs.

    Dylwch ddanfon drafftiau o’r asesiadau i’r Brifysgol 16 wythnos cyn i’r asesiad gael ei gynnal.

    Dylid cyflwyno meini prawf marcio a/neu atebion enghreifftiol ochr yn ochr â’r holl asesiadau drafft ac argymhellir fod y canolfannau’n cyflwyno asesiadau ailsefyll ar yr un pryd â’r prif asesiad.

    Cofiwch os yw’r rhaglen yn cael ei hasesu mewn iaith ar wahân i Saesneg y dylid cyflwyno asesiadau drafft yn iaith y cyflwyno ac yn Saesneg.

    Bydd canolfannau cydweithredol yn derbyn sylwadau/cymeradwyaeth gan yr arholwyr allanol ar yr asesiadau drafft drwy’r Uned Academaidd. Noder na chaniateir dosbarthu asesiadau cyn derbyn y gymeradwyaeth derfynol.

  • As a benefit of validation, all collaborative centres have access to Turnitin software. Turnitin software can assist with detection of plagiarism and has many other features and products.

    An activation email has been sent to the main administrative contact at each collaborative centre. If this email has been misplaced or the contact person has changed, please contact Global Campus Support.

    Turnitin’s Help Center provides guidance on how to use Turnitin as an administrator, instructor or student and includes links to ‘getting started’ training guides. Administrators and instructors can also take advantage of frequent 45 minute online training ‘walkthrough’ sessions.  

    Turnitin supports 15 languages as follows: English (US), Arabic, Chinese (Traditional and Simplified), Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Swedish and Turkish.

    For additional information and guidance, please refer to the University’s policy on the use of text-matching software.

  • All collaborative centres will need to hold examining boards in order to consider and confirm students’ progression and final award classifications.

    Examining boards are a key part of the quality assurance processes to ensure that standards are comparable with those of other schemes within the University of Wales and the UK.

    Examining boards are arranged directly by the University of Wales, ideally at the start of the academic session. The academic unit is responsible for confirming the date of the examining board, issuing invites to attendees, and coordinating all subsequent travel arrangements. Examining boards can only take place once the date has been approved by the University of Wales.

    This brief guide to examining boards is split into three sections:

    BEFORE THE EXAMINING BOARD

    Marking student work
    All student work should be marked by internal examiners. Please follow and ensure that markers make full comments. It is good practice for work to be marked anonymously and for markers to complete marking sheets.

    Unfair Practice
    If (plagiarism or collusion) is suspected, the university’s Unfair Practice Procedure must be followed and the university must be informed and invited to attend any hearing.

    Examination Transfer
    At least one month prior to the examining board, the institution administrator should upload an examination transfer. This will generate a University mark sheet (ORF). Please refer to the Guidance for Registration and Examination Transfers for further information.

    Internal examining board
    An internal board should be held in advance of the examining board.

    Special/extenuating circumstances
    Students should be made aware of the process for submission of extenuating circumstances in the student handbook. Applications should be considered first at the internal examining board or a special circumstances committee.

    Review of student work by external examiners
    External examiners will need to review a sample of all marked student work prior to the examining board to enable them to confirm the marks awarded and comment on the assessment process.

    If your scheme has been taught/assessed in a language other than English, you will also need to provide translated copies of the assessment and student work.

    DURING THE EXAMINING BOARD

    Agenda
    The University’s should be followed and the meeting chaired and minuted by staff from the Institution. Spreadsheets of students’results should be made available to all present (examples are provided in related links).

    Attendance
    The University has attendance at examining boards. The Board is Chaired by the Moderator, with External Examiners as full members. A University of Wales Senior Academic Officer or Academic Officer will also be in attendance.

    Consideration of Award (undergraduate degrees)
    Once the final degree classifications have been agreed by the examining board, the Academic Officer or Senior Academic Officer will enter the results on the ORF which will be signed by the Chair and all internal and external examiners.

    Consideration of Award (master’s degrees)
    Work contributing to Part 1 (taught element) and a Part 1 mark will be agreed and recorded on the ORF.

    AFTER THE EXAMINING BOARD 

    Disclosure of Marks
    Collaborative centres should release confirmed marks to students within a reasonable time frame. Students should also receive timely and constructive feedback on their performance.

    Confirmation of Award (undergraduate degrees)
    Within 4 weeks of the date of the examining board the ORF will be processed and students will be admitted to their awards in absentia by the Vice-Chancellor. Each collaborative centre is required to upload diploma supplements/transcripts for each student receiving an award. The certificates and diploma supplements/transcripts are then sent securely to the institution, for distribution to students.

    Confirmation of Award (master’s degrees)
    The mark for the dissertation (part 2) is considered and confirmed by correspondence. Marked dissertations should be sent to the Registry for onward transmission to the external examiner who will be asked to review/confirm the dissertation and internal mark within 4 weeks. Internal examiners, external examiner and chair of the examining board will all sign the Result and Report Form to confirm the Part 2 mark.

    Both Part 1 and Part 2 marks contribute 50% towards the final degree classification.

    Graduation Celebration
    All students receiving a University of Wales award are invited to attend the annual Degree Celebration held in Cardiff.

    Appeals
    If eligible, students may submit an appeal under the University’s Appeals Procedure.

    External Examiner and Moderator Reports
    All external examiners and moderators are required to complete a report for submission to the University within 4 weeks of the examining board, which will be forwarded to the collaborative centre for consideration and response.
