student will receive a grade above an
‘80’, while a less distinguished
student a grade below an ‘80’.
Middle level

example, the student’s responses show that he or she has read the student notes, the student has completed
(online or classroom) tasks that were assigned by the tutor.
The student participates frequently in class or group discussions; such discussions may also occur on an online
platform (e.g. IVLE).
The student’s contributions to discussions—by way of offering answers, raising questions of clarification and
objections—are always of high quality. A contribution is of high quality if it reflects, for instance, critical
thinking and self-reflection.
