What does CRA involve?
1. 
Rubrics (criteria sheets) that are provided to students when the assessment task is assigned, and
which contain:
a) specific criteria for each assessment task in a unit;
b) meaningful standards descriptors for each assessment criterion (specific to the task).
2. 
Moderation of criteria and standards, and active familiarisation of students with them, prior to
submission of the assessment task;
3. 
Use of the rubric when assessing student work, to assign a grade and provide feedback (and
 
feedforward) to students;
4. 
Review (and modification) of the criteria and standards descriptors after marking of each assessment
task .
