Abu Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 They aren't moderated.They are which is why they're videotaped and sent to the IBO. Most of the times they stay the same, but they can go down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneyfaery Posted February 2, 2009 Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 They are which is why they're videotaped and sent to the IBO. Most of the times they stay the same, but they can go down.None of ours were taped... oops, then again, we also didn't fill out the form thingy (forget what it's called: vad something???). Silly teachers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My ToK teacher insisted on taping all our presentations since the final one has to be videotaped and we won't get camera shy As far as I know, the IB requires them to be video taped so that they have proof of it happening. I don't know if the syllabus has changed since May 08 though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deissi Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 In my school, presentations have never been taped. It is only necessary to videotape if IBO requests it. According to my teacher (examiner), they only do that to schools where there is much difference between Essay and Presentation grades.I moved this into a new thread.

According to my teacher (examiner), they only do that to schools where there is much difference between Essay and Presentation grades.I moved this into a new thread.I see, my teacher (also an examiner) insists on taping every presentation since the IBO asks for it. I guess it may be so because the majority at my school are pretty bad at writing, but good at presenting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
deissi Posted February 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2009 Anyways, point is they aren't moderated like other subjects are. I guess we can say case closed. Locked Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
