  • SASTA: 2025 Stage 2 psychology marking & moderation

    2025 Stage 2 psychology marking & moderation

    Presenters: Carolyn Pinchbeck and Emma Beukema

    Intended audience: Stage 2 Psychology teachers and Stage 1 Psychology teachers preparing students for Stage 2 Psychology next year.

    This workshop will provide clarity for teachers around assessment standards for the Stage 2 Psychology Curriculum. There will be opportunity for teachers to discuss assessment and the application of the performance standards to Stage 2 work samples, as well as receiving invaluable professional input about their own student samples. This will be a fabulous opportunity for teachers to confirm, clarify, and readjust their own marking standards prior to sending work samples off for final moderation.

    Tasks that will be discussed include the deconstruct and design task, science as a human endeavour investigation and marking of SATs, including both short answer and extended response test-style questions, and assignments.

    “There was a lot of oppportunity to discuss aspects in table groups which was fantastic. It was useful to see different task sheets and ways of assessing.” – 2024 attendee
