Funding Arrangements 2009
$325,000 has been allocated for the development of moderation at Curtin. This funding (informed by the Moderation Final Report 2008 [PDF 215kb]) is to provide transitional support during 2009 following the adoption of the moderation policy implemented for Semester 2, 2009. (See Section 3 of the Assessment Manual).
Four broad priority areas have been established:
- To support the development of generic and discipline specific resources to support colleagues across the faculties;
- To improve administrative moderation processes in large units;
- To improve moderation processes through staff development activities and moderation projects;
- To enhance moderation of examinations (including paper examinations, those delivered online and those marked electronically).
Of the $325,000 available, a total of $220,000 is passed directly to faculties ($55,000 per faculty) via Deans of Teaching and Learning with the remaining $105,000 available more widely via competitive bid.
