Technology assessment specification
Scholarship Performance Standard (93601) | Technology |
Method of assessment | Report (digital submission) |
For year | 2023 |
Format of the assessment
The assessment will be in the form of a reflective report based on experiences in developing a technological outcome(s). A report is an organised collection of evidence that clearly communicates the candidate's knowledge, understanding, and skills relevant to the Technology Scholarship standard.
A report must be clear and contain easily accessible evidence of the candidate's outcome. It may include a combination of:
- clear photographs
- brief videos to communicate development and functionality of technological outcomes
- graphical, audio, video, and / or digital media to enhance or illustrate aspects of the candidate's experiences shown in the report (note: audio / visual appendices should not repeat material in the report and are included in the page count).
Requirements of a report
- Length: maximum 60 A4 pages.
- Typeface: 12pt Arial (or similar).
- Margins: 2.5cm (top, bottom, left, and right).
Where ITC outcomes include websites, databases, apps, games, etc., these will not be accessed by the marker. Dynamic aspects should, therefore, be communicated in the report using screen-capture techniques and/or video evidence.
Where candidates have been involved in a group project, they must explicitly declare their individual role within the project, and report on their own work only. Where this is not clear, the marker may not see the evidence as belonging to the candidate.
Candidates should NOT shrink pages to include evidence that exceeds 60 A4 pages.
Technological experiences include:
- undertaking technological practice to develop a technological outcome(s) that is justified as fit for purpose in the broadest sense and shows elements of elegance and / or originality
- demonstrating understanding of concepts underpinning technological knowledge
- demonstrating understanding of the nature of technology.
