Marking Bias? (1 Viewer)

[Eliza B]

I was wondering if anyone else here was marked on the first monday? Also that is it possible that marking bias existed, as all our markers were male, and my MDP was something that would appeal more to a female marker. Also My teacher was positive that two projects in our class would be nominated for the powerhouse expo, (bexcause of how innovative they were, and the effort put in) yet they weren't..could that be due to bias?
Umm, does anyone else have some ideas about this

Good luck everyone with our exam on tuesday!
Remember to revise emerging technologies! ^_^

Cheers
Eliza

Hmmmm....... Eliza bias with markers is a hard subject 2 touch. The markers are experienced teachers that have been marking for a fair while nd they know what they r doing.
To answer your question, i spose bias is possible, but it is VERY unlikely due to the marking process, and the experience of the markers will in most cases overlook the possibility of a bias opinion.
Your teacher has thoughts and opinions about projects which may have not been the same as the markers....and their are many factors which could contribute to why this is so.
