Guidelines for marking

The following guidelines for marking show one approach to assigning a value to a student’s work. Other approaches may be used that better suit the reporting process of the school. Categories, marks, grades, visual representations or individual comments/notations may all be useful.

Students in this range:

High
  • draw accurate sketches of the two cylinders
  • accurately obtain the radius or diameter, height and volume of the two cylinders
  • provide clear explanations with appropriate conclusion.
Satisfactory
  • draw accurate sketches of the two cylinders
  • accurately calculate the base area of at least one cylinder.
Progressing
  • obtain the radius or diameter, and height of at least one cylinder.

Feedback

Students will receive:

  • possible prompt questions related to the assessment activity to assist their engagement
  • written feedback on individual responses to indicate evidence of understanding of the concepts related to volume of a cylinder
  • specific advice about strategies to further consolidate knowledge, skills and understanding, and suggestions for completing related additional tasks
  • oral feedback (to the class and individuals) related to the overall understanding of the concepts and misconceptions about the mathematical ideas.
