N4 case study

Gaelic (Learners) Assignment (National 4) Added Value Unit — Sabhal Mòr Ostaig

Delivering and assessing the course

Implementation of this approach was fairly simple — we had knowledge of a wide range of AVUs through the verification process, and through the sharing of materials within local authority areas. We used these texts in order to prepare our own texts about Sabhal Mòr Ostaig with a range of language appropriate for National 4. This development work only took 2 hours. The two texts were designed to be distinct but complementary.

We also provided an audio recording of the texts, narrated by native speakers, to complement the written texts. It was felt that this would assist the candidates with comprehension and in acquiring the vocabulary for the assessment standards 1.2 and 1.3.

An unaltered judging evidence table was used from the unit assessment support pack to make assessment judgements. It was designed as a tick list for assessment standards 1.2 and 1.3, to allow for ease of reviewing assessment decisions.
