VCE® Quality Assessment Tasks (QATs) are a comprehensive set of assessment resources for use with School Assessed Coursework (SACs) and examinations.

The assessment tasks provide an excellent resource for teachers to use directly with their students: both for assessment or as preparation for assessment. Delivered by email, they can be simply printed for immediate student use.

We recommend that teachers use a variety of assessment tasks to ensure the security and integrity of an assessment program.

Strictly NOT for private tutor use.

Note: All SAC tasks and exams are published in Word.

Features

QATs for School Assessed Coursework (SACs)

Introduction - identifies the essential elements of the task for students, in relation to course VCAA outcomes, content, task types and instructions.
Task advice - includes relevant source material, questions and marks. Material such as newspaper articles, case study descriptions, scenarios and graphics such as flow charts may be included.
Teacher advice - includes any specific task management issues and links to VCAA requirements.
Solution Pathway - provides teachers and students with a description of a sample response and the basis on which marks for the task/question are allocated. Answers are both an excellent point of reference for teacher marking and for student self examination of their work.

VCE® Examination QATs

The VCE® Examinations include similar features to those outlined above, including a Solution Pathway. They are however typically longer and provide exam instruction to the students consistent with VCAA guidelines.

The VCE® QATs (Quality Assessment Tasks) make assessment of performance for School Assessed Coursework (SACs) and exams reliable and accurate.
