LOCAL DECISIONS:
Advise schools of the judges involved.
Will submissions such as works of art, physical structures, or developed technology be made available for the judges?
TIPS:
- Don’t leave it till the last minute to secure your judges – it may take a while to find the correct skills with time to undertake the assessments.
- Reach out to Saving Our Species as they may be able to assist with finding judges in your area.
- Make sure your selected judges have reviewed and understand the Assessment Criteria and Rubric prior to commencing assessments.
- Each judge is to complete an assessment for each submission. Use the Combined Assessment template provided to amalgamate the scoring and feedback.
- The local KOALA SMART exhibition in October will provide the opportunity for judges to give direct feedback to the teachers and students involved.
