The training

One day, with your own tests

No demo to watch. Every participant works on their own laptop, with their own set of tests, and goes home with a working setup.

Programme

What happens on the day

The outline below is the full day. The half-day covers parts one through four, without the setup on your own tests.

  1. Why, and where the line sits

    The distinction between the first round and the final judgment, and why that line isn't negotiable. Including the cases where you may hand off nothing at all.

  2. Settings and data

    Every participant sets up their settings correctly before a single file is sent. This happens on the day itself, together, not afterward by email.

  3. Preparing tests

    Exporting from the school platform, pseudonymizing, and getting files into the right format. The practical step that's most often underestimated.

  4. Writing the grading guide

    The longest part of the day, and the most important. Every participant writes one for a real test from their own practice.

  5. Running and reviewing a batch

    The first round on a real batch, followed by the review work. This is where you see for yourself where the system is reliable and where it isn't.

  6. Sharing within the team

    How colleagues teaching the same subject share and maintain one grading guide, so the work doesn't happen three times over.

Formats

Which format fits

Three formats. Which one fits usually becomes clear from the first half-hour conversation.

Half day

Introduction for the team

For schools that want to see what this is first. The method and the line are covered, without setting up on real tests. The lightest way to start.

One day

Full day, hands-on

Every participant works on their own laptop with a real batch of tests, and goes home with a working setup and a grading guide they can use right away.

Per term

Follow-up and maintenance

For schools that want to keep shared grading guides up to date and let the method grow with the subject team.

What the team learns on the day may be shared internally with colleagues who weren't there. Which format fits becomes clear from a short conversation beforehand.

Practical

What the school provides

  • A room with a projector and enough power outlets for the number of participants.
  • Working wifi that the teachers' laptops can join.
  • A laptop for each participant, with rights to install software.
  • A real batch of tests per participant, already graded, so there's something to compare against.

Two questions decide almost everything

Are the tests digital, and are teachers allowed to install something on their own laptops? Those two answers shape the day.

They come up first in the intake conversation, so you don't book a day that doesn't fit.

Results

Numbers to follow after the first school

Measurable results from the pilot school will go here once they exist: the average time saved per batch, the share of grades the teacher adjusted, and how many participants were still using the method after three weeks.

Until then, this stays empty. Numbers that haven't been measured don't belong on the website of someone asking schools for trust.
