Attendance, Assessment and Academic Progress

Introduction

A post-training quiz is a set of questions, accompanied by their correct answers, intended for use by participants’ following the completion of a training session within a Meshed training program.  This is an effective tool for allowing participants to self-assess their understanding and knowledge, identify areas for improvement, and reinforce their understanding.

Some of the questions are designed to require critical thinking and the application of knowledge rather than mere recall.  In addition to correct answers, explanations or additional information may be included to enhance participants' understanding.

Instructions

Please attempt each question, and refer to the provided answers to check whether your responses were correct or not. This immediate feedback helps you gauge your understanding, provides a review of material you may have misunderstood, or identifies areas where you may need to gain further knowledge or clarification.

Question 1

Question: If a Student is not included in the ‘Daily Attendance Roll’ what reasons can cause that happen?

 Answer:

Ensure the student is enrolled in a class/batch for the Subject(s) for the Course they have chosen. If the Student is not enrolled in a class/batch they will not appear on an Attendance Roll.

If the student has a current Course deferral, holiday or suspension that has been approved they will not appear on an Attendance Roll.

If the Student Course status is not set to ‘Current Student’ they will not appear on an Attendance Roll.

Question 2

Question: Why would a Student with RPL or CT outcome for Subjects/Units incorrectly appear in the ‘Check Attendance’ under ‘Daily Attendance Roll’?

 Answer:

A Student enrolled in a class/batch for a Subject will appear in the ‘Check Attendance’ for that class/batch, including Students with RPL or CT recorded for the Subject Outcome.

You need to ensure the Students with RPL or CT recorded for the Subject Outcome are not enrolled into a batch/class, the batch should be ‘No batch’ for the Student so that they will not appear in the ‘Check Attendance’.

Question 6

Question: What type of Results Grading scheme is typically used for VET Courses?

 Answer:

In the Vocational Education and Training (VET) sector in Australia, the results grading scheme typically focuses on competency-based assessment rather than traditional academic grading. This approach assesses whether a student can demonstrate the required skills and knowledge to meet the industry standards for a specific qualification.

The Results Grading schemes that can be used can be defined using Configuration and Setup > Result Grade

Question 7

Question: How are Assessment methods and tasks setup in the Meshed Platform?

 Answer:

VET assessments are designed to be practical and relevant to determine whether students meet standards for specific skills and knowledge. Common assessment methods include:

  • Practical Demonstrations: Assessing students in a real or simulated work environment to demonstrate their skills.

  • Workplace Assessments: Evaluating performance in the actual workplace.

  • Written Tests and Assignments: Testing theoretical knowledge and understanding of the subject matter.

  • Projects and Portfolios: Compiling evidence of work over time to demonstrate competency.

  • Observations and Interviews: Conducted by trainers and assessors to verify skills and knowledge.

The Assessment methods and tasks that can be used are defined using Compliance > Academic Progress > Setup Assessment Tasks
