This is a bit of an experiment, but I hope that we will be able to use a template to set up assignments easily. We have a format from Edexcel and dropping the information into the form would be easier than writing a whole form each time.
- Help:Templates - Wikibooks' help page for templates.
- Template:BTECNatAppSciAssignment - the template itself.
This is what the template looks like when it's used:
| Course title: | BTEC National Diploma in Applied Science | ||
| College/school name: | (Space for writing) | ||
| Tutor name: | (Space for writing) | ||
| Assignment title: | Analysis of potassium manganate (VII) | Ref: | 1 of 6 |
| Learner name: | (Space for writing) | ||
| Start date: | 6 Sep 2007 | Deadline: | 27 Sep 2007 |
| Unit (number and title):19: Practical Chemical Analysis
22: Chemical laboratory techniques | |||
| Scenario: Colorimetry is commonly used to measure concentrations in automated systems.
Investigate colorimetry by preparing potassium manganate (VII) at various concentrations and measuring its absorbance. | |||
| Assessment evidence: | |||
| Unit | Grading criteria | Achieved | |
| 19 | P1 Calculate amounts and use volumetric methods to prepare a range of solutions of known concentration. | yes / part / no | |
| 19 | M1 Perform calculations and use volumetric techniques to determine concnetrations of solutions. | yes / part / no | |
| 19 | P1 Evaluate the reliability of the calcuations and techniques used to determine concentrations of solutions. | yes / part / no | |
| 22 | P3 Carry out and report volumetric analysis and intrumental analysis to identify cations, anions and simple organic functional groups. | yes / part / no | |
| Summary of assessor's feedback: | |||

This allows up to six criteria and six tasks per assignment. Are more required? If any are left blank, then the template ignores them.
