Hypothetical Question:
Let's say we have a cohort of students undertaking unit 3/4 'Methods' at some school. We have one hardworking student who performs significantly better than the rest of his cohort, who are, for the sake of this question, under performing (they are unwilling, lazy students)
All the SACs for the year have been completed and the cohort ranking sees the hardworking student well above the rest of his cohort. Soon enough the students sit the methods exam and score as follows:
The hardworking student's effort pays off, he receives full marks on both exams. The rest of the cohort, however, do not even attempt the questions and consequently they all get 0 for both exams.
Will the student's SAC mark (one of three graded assessments) be in any way affected by the performance of his cohort or will the student simply receive his own average exam mark as his score for the SAC component of the graded assessments?
