Marking your Social and Cultural Anthropology Internal Assessment

  • PD Topic area: DP
  • Language: English
  • Level: Cat 3
This teacher resource is designed to guide educators in assessing student work for the internal assessment (IA) at Standard Level (SL), focusing on limited fieldwork.

It includes four authentic student samples, each annotated with commentary that illustrates how the assessment criteria are applied. The commentary provides specific marks awarded and discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each student's work, highlighting common issues and offering teaching advice for future students. This resource aims to enhance understanding of the IA process, helping teachers integrate IA evaluation into regular classroom activities rather than treating it as a separate post-course task.
