Workshop Description:

It’s getting close to final exam time, and the prospect of having a pile of exams to grade can be daunting. Not only is it stressful to have someone else’s grade in your hands, but when you’re asked to mark answers to questions that don’t have an objective answer it can be hard to manage. This workshop will help you navigate the subjective part of grading, and help you communicate with the professor you work with so you understand their expectations. We’ll give you tips for marking, and examples of the types of questions to ask your professor before you start marking. Don’t let yourself be bogged down with marking blues – go into the exam period with confidence.
