What types of resource can I add, and how do they help AI marking?
You can upload seven types of resource. MarkMate's AI reads every resource you attach to an assessment and uses the parts that apply to each heading it's marking. The type helps you and your colleagues find the right document in the library.
Type | What it is | How it helps marking |
Mark scheme | Marks, levels, model answers or success criteria | The biggest help. The AI marks against it directly |
Work example | A marked example or a model answer | Shows what good work looks like at each level |
Lesson plan | The plan for the lesson the work came from | Shows what students were taught and expected to do |
Lesson sequence | A series of lessons | Gives the bigger picture of what led up to the work |
Unit overview | What a unit or topic covers | Helps the AI understand the expected content |
Curriculum overview | Your curriculum for a year or key stage | Sets the expected standard |
Subject overview | An overview of your subject | General background |
Tips for the best results
Attach only what's relevant to this piece of work. One clear mark scheme beats five loosely related documents.
Keep attachments short and focused. If you attach a lot, very long documents may be cut short, so put the most important one first.
No mark scheme? The AI marks against the expected standard for your class's year group. A mark scheme, or a marked example, makes its marking much closer to yours.
