Variation among markers has the potential to disadvantage students by contributing to a discrepancy in assessments in higher education settings. In this study, we extended a previous study that analyzed first-year students’ results in a Business Faculty within an Australian university to understand the extent of variation within and between multiple markers and across multiple courses. The study investigated the potential influence of quality of rubrics and associated documentation provided as marker guidance. Results indicated that specific features of rubrics, such as the inclusion of clear indicators of quality, had an observable effect on marker variation.

专栏质量对高等教育标志物变异的影响

标记之间的差异可能导致高等教育环境中的评估差异，从而使学生处于劣势。在这项研究中，我们扩展了之前的研究，该研究分析了澳大利亚大学商学院一年级学生的成绩，以了解多个标记之间以及多个课程之间的差异程度。这项研究调查了红糖质量的潜在影响，并提供了相关的文献资料作为标记指导。结果表明，专栏的特定特征，例如包含清晰的质量指标，对标记的变化具有明显的影响。
