Moderation

This page is for those acting as External and Internal Moderators for courses at the University of Derby.

The resources here will guide you through how to moderate student marks and feedback in GradeMark, the Turnitin feedback tool available from within the University of Derby's Course Resources (Blackboard) site.

Before you start

• Moderators will need to ensure that they can see the Blackboard area of the class/es they are moderating.
  • Internal Moderators can be added onto modules by the Faculty Office
  • External Moderators will need to have an account created this should be automatic, but if you don't know  can be

    initiated by emailing externalexaminers@derby.ac.uk

• Make sure you know the assignment that you are reviewing. Assignment 1,2 etc.

When you review student submissions you have the technical ability to add comments on the student's paper. Please do not add comments in this way as students will be able to see them.

The video below details how to use the Grademark system and there is also a link to the printable guide.
