Non-Linguistic Factors:
Factors Because of time, one practical
option is the use of a checklist.
checklist These may be Yes/No
or Pass/Fail, the student can or cannot satisfy a
certain criterion. Another example may be ability to
work within a group.
Linguistic Factors:
Factors Here, it is much more likely that
students can satisfy criteria to a greater or lesser
degree, in other words, they will be improving along
he process, eg oral expression. In these cases, a more
descriptive system of grading is needed than Yes/No
or Pass/Fail. An alternative is to use a rating scale
(Holistic or analytic) to grade student performance in
these areas into a number of bands, eg 0 is a poor
performance and 5 is an excellent performance.
