Grading descriptors
In addition to the University's NRA, teaching staff also had concerns about the grade descriptors provided in the guidelines (Figure 1). Only a very small proportion of staff comment positively on these, whist others have opted to either ignore them or to develop sets of their own that are specific to their subject criteria. This highlights the inadequacy and unsuitability of the descriptors as being too generic and not suitable for the wide range of different subjects taught at the University. It is rather like making a suit that fits everybody. In fact, it does not fit anybody very well, as we are all different shapes and sizes. The following comment confirms this view:
"I think it's the description for some of the grades that is problematic. For example, Grade C corresponds to Satisfactory. To me it is contradictory. In the eyes of the students, they think Grade C is already a poor grade and we have to try and explain this to them. Because I gave you a Grade C does not mean that you are lousy, your performance was still satisfactory. Maybe we need to rethink the descriptions for all the grades. It seems misleading at the moment." (Teacher, Department G)
