Addressing QTS Standards

One of the critical features of the LAT is the ability for students to submit work that is aligned to QTS standards. By using this feature, students and staff are able to:

Align all submissions against QTS standards
Conduct gap analysis reporting that identifies which standards have not been addressed.
Produce reports that show whether or not the students has achieved identified all standards.

Addressing QTS standards

Identifying work requirement

The student identifies the work requirement that needs to be submitted.

Select standards

The student uoploads their work and selects that they wish to address the QTS standards.

Target Sets

Students are able to select standards from pre-populated Target Sets or from programme learning outcomes.

Identify Specific Standards

The student now selects the specific standards or criteria that the work submission aligns to.

Applied Standards

The specified standards have now been aligned to the work submission.

Reports

Both staff and students are able to track which standards have been addressed by student work submissions.

Gap & Frequency Reports

The Gap & Frequency report allows staff and students to identify work that has been aligned to standards and which standards have yet to be addressed.
