+<P>After the teacher has submitted the examples it is useful from the
+ teacher's point of view to assess these examples, if only partially.
+ These assessments are private to the teacher, they are NOT shown
+ to the students at any stage during the assignment. They are,
+ however, useful when the teacher looks at the student assessments
+ of the examples. When grading a student assessment, the teacher
+ sees their own assessment at the top of the page and the
+ student's assessment of the same piece of work at the bottom of
+ the page. The "extra" assessment acts as a reference
+ source and a reminder of the salient points held in the example.

+
+<P>In general the teacher will want to assess the work submitted by the
+ students. The assessments are shown to the students and should provide
+ feedback on their work.</P>
+<P>The grades from these assessments can be used
+ in two ways in the final grade calculation. Firstly, the grade itself can be
+ used as a (weighted) component in the final grade. Secondly, these
+ grades can optionally be added into the pool of peer assessments and
+ used as a "calming factor" if it felt that the student
+ assessments are too high or too low.

+
+<P>If the students are required to assess some example pieces of work
+ before submitting their own work, the teacher uses this link to submit
+ that work. The teacher can submit any number of pieces of work. If the
+ number of pieces of work is greater than the number of example
+ assessments each student must make, then the work is allocated in a
+ random but balanced fashion. The system tries to assure that each of
+ the examples is allocated to the students the same number of times.
+ The allocation is random in that if, say, ten examples are submitted then
+ it is highly unlikely that the first student is allocated submissions
+ 1, 2 and 3 to assess.</P>
+
+<P>If the teacher submits a fewer number of examples than given
+ in the corresponding parameter of the assignment, the students
+ are given just those examples to assess.</P>

+
+<P><B>Assessment of Student Submissions</B> These are the peer assessments
+ made by students on eachother's work. In general, these assessments do NOT
+ have to be graded by the teacher. Provided each of the student submissions is
+ assessed about five times, the system can make a reasonable judgement on
+ the inidivual assessment performance of the students. When the number of
+ peer assessments is low then the teacher may want to grade these
+ assessments. Any grades given to the assessments can be taken into account
+ when calculating the final grades for the students.

+
+<P><B>Assessments of Teacher Submissions</B> These are assessments of
+ the example pieces of work which the assignment may require the students
+ to make before they can submit their own work. These assessments should,
+ in general, be graded by the teacher. The assessments will show whether the
+ student understand the assignment and will provide possibly useful feedback
+ to the teacher on whether any remedial action or fine tuning of the
+ assignment is necessary. Further, if an assessment is graded the teacher's
+ comments are made available to the student. These may provide valuable
+ guidance to the student in the preparation of their own piece of work for
+ the assignment. </P>
+
+ <P>These assessments do not have to be graded. Leaving a student's
+ assessment of the examples ungraded when NOT stop that student from
+ submitting their own work. It is recommended, however, that all least a
+ sample of the assessments are graded for the reasons mentioned above.</P>
