Assessment feedback - Assessments Exams and Results

Assessment feedback

Students are encouraged to review available feedback on assessment tasks.

On this page you will find:

• How and when feedback is delivered for assessments
• Final assessment (exam) feedback information
• University assessment policies (Including feedback/complaints)

Within semester assessment and take home final assessment

To find information about how and when to access feedback on your assessments within the semester, check the Moodle page for your unit.

Feedback on final assessment tasks

Feedback for scheduled final assessment is only made available after the official university results release date. Information on how to access this feedback will be provided by your Chief Examiner on the unit Moodle site. This may be in the form of a rubric, example answer, short video or group feedback.

Viewing your final assessment

You can apply to view your final assessment. See below for different assessment types and the information available for you to review.

• eAssessment: We will provide you with an opportunity to view a pdf version of your submission along with the marks for each question.
• eAssessment/Moodle multiple choice questions: We will provide you with an opportunity to view your responses (note the correct response is not included).

Application dates

Note: For enquiries about viewing final assessments from other teaching periods (for example, Winter, Summer, or November intake), please submit your request via MoVA or Monash Connect.

How to apply for final assessment feedback

What to expect during the exam viewing session

A staff member* will be present when you view your assessment. During the online appointment the staff member will share their screen with you where you will see your eExam response with marks, where available, on a page by page basis.

*Note: The staff member attending the session will not be the marker, and cannot provide you with information or advice relating to your performance in the unit.

Requesting a correction of mark

If you find that an error has been made in calculating your mark or grade, you can request a correction. Students do not have an automatic right to have an assessment re-marked.

An error may, for example, occur when:

• your marks have been summed up incorrectly
• if an incorrect late penalty has been applied.

Note: You cannot request a correction because you do not agree with the mark, or because you feel that the marker should have given you more feedback.

All assessments with a fail grade are double marked* to confirm the grade before the result is finalised. *The assessment is independently marked by a second marker who does not have access to the grades or comments of the original marker.

Grade correction submission timelines

If you want to submit a grade correction request this must be made in writing, you can access the form for this through ask.Monash.

For semester one final assessments, you’ll need to request a mark correction within six weeks of the results release date.

For semester two final assessments, you’ll need to request a mark correction before the end of the first week of semester one the next year.

To be eligible to request a grade correction, you must first:

• Access the feedback as outlined on your unit Moodle site
• Apply and view your final assessment.

What happens if a marking error is found?

Where a request is granted by the Chief Examiner of the unit and the original mark is found to be incorrect, the error will be corrected and the revised mark will stand, even if the revised mark is lower than the original.

Marking and feedback complaints

If you believe that part of the Marking and Feedback Procedure hasn’t been followed for your assessment, you can submit a complaint. Keep in mind that you’ll need to explain exactly which part of the procedure has not been followed.
