4.Student Grade Achievement Verification (eg. cross-check of grade validity by independent

evaluator).

Method(s) of Verification Conclusion Exams are marked electronically

and a random sample of the

students answer sheets is remarking

manually by all instructors.

There are no difference between the marking machine output and the

manually remarked sample.
