Subjects
Subject resource pages are available for the following subjects:
Each NCEA subject resource page may include some or all of the following types of documents:
| Assessment Report | An overview of the performance of the exam candidates in the subject or standard. |
| Assessment Schedule | The markers' guide - what was accepted, or looked for in candidate answers - the 'correct' answers, as it were. Needs to be read in association with the Judgement Statement. |
| Assessment Specification | Defines how the assessment will occur - how long the exam will be, or other submission - and the format of the assessment - long or short answer or multi-choice questions, essays, number of questions, or, for submitted work, the nature of the work to be submitted |
| Exam Paper |
The set of questions to be answered by candidates in the exam room. In some cases there will be a single document; in others there may be separate documents. |
| Exemplar | An actual student answer script, with annotations from the marker indicating why the script was assessed in the way it was. |
| Judgement Statement |
Defines how the different levels of performance were separated from each other - for example that 4 correct elements means Achievement; 6 means Achievement with Merit, and so on. |
| National Moderator Report |
The National Moderators Report contains summary comments from the national moderator to give guidance to asssessors for internally assessed standards. |
| The Standard (Unit or Achievement) |
Defines the learning outcomes (what the learner will be able to do, or explain, or demonstrate, or understand, etc), as well as the assessment criteria - how it will be assessed, and usually the topics for which external assessment will occur. |
New content will be added as it is developed or becomes available.
NZQA thanks the students who have allowed their work to be published as exemplars.
Standards and previous exam documents (and associated reports, schedules, etc.) are also available through Search NCEA standards.ori
