Provide constructive and timely feedback in assessing learning of enterprise and entrepreneurship
Overview
This standard is about providing constructive feedback, within agreed timescales, when assessing learning of enterprise and entrepreneurship. It requires you to use appropriate techniques to assess the work of the learner, summarise feedback using appropriate processes within the institution, agree feedback and grades with others and engage with the learner to address questions around the assessment process used.
For the purposes of this standard, enterprise and entrepreneurship education refers to the process of equipping learners with an enhanced capacity, ideas and skills to make ideas happen, whether it is in the context of starting and running a business or working for someone else. Enterprise refers to a set of personal abilities, skills and behaviours which can be used in a variety of different contexts whilst entrepreneurship refers to an individual or group of individuals creating, developing and managing a new venture. Institution refers to the organisation you work in, whether this is a school, further education college, higher education institution or private training provider.
This standard is recommended for individuals involved in the design, development and delivery of enterprise and entrepreneurship education curricula in schools, colleges, higher education institutions and other education contexts.
