LindsD Jul 2019 7:14am, 6 Jul 2019 28,422 posts	Quote Pin LindsD Same here. If the rubric has all higher marks then ask for an explanation. The reflective stuff sounds odd. Reflection is descriptive.
1step2far Jul 2019 10:44am, 6 Jul 2019 3,955 posts	Quote Pin 1step2far Hey Carp you wrote it over night with no prep and got 30% that's good going! You've got pointers and something to work from for the re sub. More than if you'd not submitted at all. With reflection... (and sorry if you know this already) describe then analyse- that's your critical thinking demonstration. I did this (your reflection) , could have done this (analysis), because XYZ paper/ latest research suggests it but Marsden manual says this. I also HATE Gibbs cycle with a passion, so I use John's. I often used a small paragraph saying why I preferred once cycle over another- with refs etc. Don't worry about scores... you get the same registration as everyone else. I've only got my DipHE with my Paed NMC registration. I often think sometimes those with the lowest marks have achieved far more than those with the 1sts. They've far worked harder, with more going on and still passed. Often against everything! Just keep going. Sorry for long post..😳
Grast_girl Jul 2019 8:26pm, 6 Jul 2019 714 posts	Quote Pin Grast_girl I also think it would be worth asking the marker to go through the feedback if possible. There's always the possibility that there's been a mistake, especially if your essay wasn't double marked for some reason (we would always double mark a fail, but others don't). When I use a rubric, I always use the mark it produces, as I'd otherwise be too harsh, but they may find the opposite effect and correct for it across the board. It's also possible the rubric only covers some of the mark, and things like structure and presentation may also be included.

(but not chuffed enough to rush into the postgrad, and i think the missus will kill me, hah....)

Carpathius Jul 2019 10:59pm, 22 Jul 2019 17,414 posts	Quote Pin Carpathius Well done Scorge Thanks GG and 1step. Finally had a meeting today. I apparently have all the stuff in there to pass I just need to reorganise it. Not this week though. Last week of placement and I hate it so much it feels like a year.
