I don't believe this approach provides enough transparency for students for their SACs and seems to contradict previous VCAA advice, eg 2008 Coursework Audit Report



I have been sent a couple of good examples of rubrics and criteria sheets that achieve a lot more clarity for students and enable much more targeted feedback to students on their strengths and weaknesses.

Hi
 
In fact the panel – for both GAT and English prides itself on holistic markingJ
 And the mantra is to ‘reward what you can’ within your ‘on balance’ judgement. If you have a stack of 25 papers you are essentially ranking them – but you might award the same mark to two different responses  for different reasons – both for example are midrange,
 but one has better language control, the other strength in ideas.
 
The way ‘into’ this is to first decide if a piece is of a High, Middle or Low Range. Then decide if it is high middle or low within that range. From that point
 you can allocate a score.  For SAC tasks there are the 5 divisions to consider – the very top and the very bottom are the extreme high and extreme low. The three in the middle are where most of the kids are. (I always see the very top as a piece that has got
 the x-factorJ )

 
Hope that helpsJ

My understanding is that the VCAA wants us to do holistic marking rather than use the old rubrics.  We use the published VCAA marksheets and highlight levels to  which each student
 meets the criteria in different sections of the sheet as appropriate.  If you look at the criteria they are in effect set out like a rubric but without the numbers assigned to each section.  It allows you to make on balance judgements much more easily than
 with assigned numbers (but them I don't "do" numbers if I don't need to...)
