  1. In-Service Teacher Training Assessment in IGCSE Chemistry 0620 Session 3: Mark schemes and Examiners Reports

  2. Welcome • Introductions • Background • Aim of training

  3. Session 3looks at: • Using the mark scheme • Using the Examiner Report • Additional resources for IGCSE Chemistry

  4. Using mark schemes (1):The importance of mark schemes Mark schemes: • Give the allocation of marks • Indicate the range of acceptable answers • Give examples of unacceptable answers • Give an indication of what Examiners are looking for in an answer

  5. Using mark schemes (2):Use with the Examiner Report The mark scheme and Examiner Report: • Both give information about each part of each question • Should be used side by side to analyse students’ answers to questions • Provide information which can be passed on to students

  6. Using mark schemes (3):Analysis of candidate scripts Take each question in turn and do the following: • Make yourself familiar with the mark scheme • Mark the questions showing clearly where you gave each mark • Refer to the marking guidelines given in Session 2 • When you have finished, compare your marks with those of the Examiner.

  7. Using Examiner Reports (1):The importance of the reports • The range of candidate misconceptions is addressed • Areas of weakness of the candidates as a whole are highlighted • Reasons are suggested for common incorrect answers • The range of acceptable answers are commented on

  8. Using Examiner Reports(2):Analysis of contents • Misreading of questions • Incorrect reference or lack of reference to the stem of a question • Incorrect extraction of information from a table • Errors in writing equations

  9. Using Examiner Reports(2):Analysis of contents • Advice for future candidates • Careless use of words (which may result in candidates being penalised) • Poor quality of diagrams

  10. Using Examiner Reports(3): Teaching aims and the Examiner Report • It is useful to analyse the Examiner Reports over a number of years • There are a number of misconceptions that regularly reappear • There are a number of specific areas which students find conceptually difficult

  11. Additional resources (1):Schemes of work and tests • The scheme of work has 10 units which may contain: • Questions • Online tests • Simulations and simulation notes

  12. Additional resources (2):Online test materials • Test material related to each section of the scheme of work are available • There are 20 interactive questions per section • Full explanations of why particular answers are correct are available for each question

  13. Additional resources (3): Other resources recommended by CIE • Standards booklets • Specimen papers • IGCSE Chemistry Past Papers on CD Toolkit • IGCSE Chemistry endorsed textbooks

  14. Additional resources (4): Other resources recommended by CIE • Teaching and Assessing Skills in Practical Science • Planning for Practical Science in Secondary Schools • Resource lists
