TECHNICAL STUDIES RATING SCHEME

Pages 135-140 | Published online: 09 Jul 2006
 

The scheme offers operational guides based upon identifiable behaviours in a number of technical subjects classified, for rating purposes, with cognitive, affective and motor‐manipulative taxonomies. Two dimensions are postulated for each taxonomy, (i) complexity and (ii) extensiveness. The stages are briefly illustrated by reference to skilled performance in a number of crafts. Instructions for using the rating schedule to derive three profiles relevant to attainment are provided. Interpretations of profiles are suggested, including a tentative method for aggregating numerical scores for comparison with established examination grades at ‘O’ level and CSE. The results from a trial run with a simple version of the scheme are reported and discussed.
