The Assessment Review Process

The Assessment Review Process
The public examination structure, comprising the preliminary and final examinations, will be reviewed each summer in
preparation for the forthcoming academic year i.e. in June/July 2015, the structure for the 2015/16 academic year will
be reviewed. The approved examination structure will then be presented to students during on-line exam entry to
enable the selection of their assessments.
Note: There are some exceptions to this process where the examination structure has rules that
are less definable, for example, Continuing Education. Where this is the case, the examination
structure will be available for review but the students may not have access to on-line exam entry
and a manual process for entering student selection will apply.
The assessment review will be initiated by a request from the Academic Records Office (ARO) and will take place using
the eVision web application.
During the process, the following will be reviewed:

The accuracy of examination structure elements i.e. compulsory, optional/elective assessments

Applied assessment requisites and rules e.g. assessment A should be taken before assessment B, or, if
assessment A is selected, assessment C cannot be selected

The composition of compulsory and elective assessment groupings and their rules e.g. select five assessments
from group A and three from group B

The assessment method(s) and duration

The method of reporting the results i.e. individual assessment marks or overall mark

The term(s) in which the assessment is available for selection
Statuses are used during the review process to identify the stage an individual examination structure review has
reached and are described below:
Status
Definition
In Progress
A requested assessment amendment can be saved pending submission to ARO. An examination
structure with one or more saved but not submitted assessments will be marked as ‘In Progress’.
No further amendments can be made to an assessment with this status although the requested
amendments can be viewed.
Accepted
An examination structure which does not require any amendment and has been accepted as
accurate, will be marked ‘Accepted’.
Amended
This status will be displayed when any required amendment(s) for the examination structure
have been submitted to ARO.
Approved
After the amendment is made by ARO, this status will be displayed, and the assessment will be
available again for review. Further amendments cannot be requested through eVision.
After the departmental/divisional review has taken place, the reviewer will receive confirmation of their acceptance of
the structure(s) or their amendments by email. The details of any required additions or amendments to the presented
examination structures will be forward to ARO for updates to be made. The amendments will then be reviewable via
the same eVision page.

2.1
Joint Schools review and amendments
The process of reviewing and requesting amendments culminates in a submission to the ARO. Once any submission is
made, further amendments to the Examination Structure cannot be requested, until the ARO have completed the
changes on the system.
When multiple schools need to review and request amendments, a shared process needs to used so that an
Examination Structure is not locked down by the first school reviewing or requesting an amendment. This would
prevent another school reviewing and submitting additional amendments.
There are two suggested options:
a)
Each Joint Schools administrator can login and make amendments to their own part of the Joint School but
these changes should not be submitted until all administrators have checked the assessments and structure.
Therefore, you will need to liaise with each other and agree when and who will submit the final changes.
OR
b) You can nominate one administrator who will gather any changes/comments from the other administrators
and will then be the only person to login and submit the changes on behalf of all.
It would be useful if you could inform the ARO of which option has been chosen for each Joint School and who the
‘lead’ administrator will be.
