Week 11 (Analytic and Holistic marking)

It is interesting to learn about analytic and holistic marking scheme as both of these two marking scheme have its own strength and weaknesses.

Analytic provide separate assessment for each of a number of aspect of performance. This marking scheme is really helpful for novice or inexperience teachers as it give clear information about how we should mark students work.

Holistic marking scheme on the other hand helps novice teacher to give feedback to their students. Holistic marking scheme assume that all aspect of writing should be considered when marking students work. In other words, students writing are overall assessed by teacher. Holistic provides detail description of how teacher should mark students work.
