1. Watch

No More Marking is a comparative judgement tool that produces an evaluation by consulting experts. These experts will evaluate the work and mark it independently. Once they have judged it, the tool will create a final metric by using their decisions.

3 Reasons to use No More Marking in the Classroom:

  • Speed. You can save around 75% of the time it takes to mark.
  • Reliability. Scripts are shared amongst judges, with each script compared by many judges. A judge cannot be generous or severe. You can measure the consistency of each judge.
  • Meaning. You do not have to define in advance what good looks like.

Here’s how No More Marking works:

  • NMM helps you assess open-ended work.
  • Set a task on paper, scan the scripts as pdfs, and upload them.
  • After uploading the scans, you add the email address of your judges.
  • You set a question for your judges, such as ‘The better piece of writing?’
  • Your email your judges links to judge the work.
  • Your judges decide, for a series of pairs, which of each pair is better according to your question.
  • After a number of judgements NMM creates a scale of best to worst according to your question.
