Annotate Company Accreditation For Free

this video will provide an overview of step 4 on the road to becoming accredited at proficient and step four is annotating the evidence this is one of the biggest steps in the process step 3 I spoke to you about writing an evidence cover sheet and ensuring that that evidence cover sheet was detailed that it included links specific links to the standard descriptors it included links to the evidence itself and the impact on student learning once that's done you can then go into your pieces of evidence and clearly annotate on the evidence where the standard descriptors are being mentor satisfied now in one of the previous videos I explained to you a good strategy to use is to is to place post-it notes on the actual points on the evidence and write on the post-it notes exactly which descriptor is being met and write a little overview of how it's been met if you've done that then that makes the annotating part at this point very easy so annotating the evidence you may use an online program such as preview on Mac or Adobe Reader to annotate electronically I encourage you to do this because it makes it very easy if you do happen to make a mistake to do this you need to scan all the evidence item first and then open them in your desired program to annotate you can annotate your evidence items physically that is by cutting out pieces of paper and pasting them on but it can become a time-consuming process particularly if you make mistakes and when it gets time to submit your evidence for proofreading it can be a very difficult thing to have to go back and change that so I encourage you to get your head around using some of these electronic annotation tools because it will make your life a lot easier you can see in the image there's a screenshot of preview which you can use on a Mac and you can see that there's a markup symbol there on the screen with the arrow pointed to it that's the markup toolkit now once you click on it will then bring up all the tools that we can use to annotate including adding text boxes and arrows and things like that and you can also do digital signatures as well which makes it very easy when you need to date and sign every single page so I encourage you to use preview preview is a very easy tool to use but Adobe Reader is also quite easy to use as well so annotating really is pointing out specifically how your evidence meets the standards and you can see on the screen is an evidence of an assessment task that has been submitted as a piece of evidence and you can see that the person has clearly outlined or has arrows pointing to the parts that meet that particular standard descriptor and you can see there's a text box that explains what's happening there ICT integrated to engage students in the task now let's have a look at standing a little bit closer at the standard descriptor and you can see that the arrows are pointing to two parts you can see it relates to ICT they're talking about a Google Doc and they're also talking about...
