<div>Micaela,</div>
<div>Ahhh….you've opened up another can of worms….we've had constant discussions of how best to assess Yr 12; should we use rubrics? Should we use assessment criteria? Should we mark holistically – as many PDs seem to advise?</div>
<div>We settled on assessment criteria, but they have their limitations, as they can't possibly cover ALL the items in the holistic assessment.</div>
<div>What do others do?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Yes, it's a tough gig being a senior English teacher – but it will only take you 10 years to feel comfortable – then the rest of your career to continue to doubt yourself…but that's how it has to be. Personally, if I ever feel as though I have it all worked
out, it's the time when something or someone will come along to challenge that, and make me re-think everything all over again. I think that's healthy, though. Good on you for taking it on.</div>

<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 8pt;">Hi everyone
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm new to teaching Year 12 and still have that lost-but-learning feeling!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>One of the most daunting aspects of this year has been SAC marking. I still feel rather confused about exactly what I'm looking for (particularly in C&P) and was wondering whether anyone has some really strong rubrics they could send through, for all
areas of study.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers</div>
