| Итог: | This paper explores the use of representativeness as a guide to examining at English A level, through an analysis of two day long training days on two different modules,. Representativeness is a cognitive heuristic which guides decision-making by essentially asking ‘how much does this example look like it belongs to this class of things?’ A number of representative characteristics emerged during the training meetings including length, ‘adult’ writing and quality of written communication. The relation between representativeness and the mark scheme is also explored. |
