Training, during which you will be asked to familiarize yourself in detail with the criteria for evaluating Scratch Olympiad projects and confirm your knowledge. Certification is free of charge. After successfully passing the certification, you can start checking the Scratch Olympiad National stage projects.
We are going to discuss the issue: How to judge children's work fairly? This is an important question! We're going to talk about a common understanding of the criteria for evaluating children's project work! All evaluation criterion are described in the regulations. However, sometimes we have a confusing situation. We have one project and two evaluations (ratings). One evaluation is very high and the other is very low. It should not be like this! А normal situation is when the two evaluations are slightly different! The course consists of 8 modules (C1-C8). Each module is dedicated to the description of one criterion. In the final test, you need to answer 80% of the questions correctly to pass the certification. 80 % is 20 correct answers out of 24.
