The staged process has been designed to:The staged process has been designed to:
Promote and support informed learner self-assessment, peer assessment and dialogue about learning and achievement between learners and tutors/trainers;
Enable both the achievement of planned learning objectives and learning outcomes not specified at the outset to be recognised and valued;
Promote good practice in teaching, learning and assessment
Enhance providers’ quality assurance and improvement practices.
The RARPA staged process The RARPA staged process comprises five elements: comprises five elements:
1. Aims appropriate to an individual learner or groups of learners
2. Initial assessment to establish the learner’s starting point
3. Identification of appropriately challenging learning objectives
4. Recognition and recording of progress and achievement during programme (formative assessment)
5. End of programme learner self-assessment; tutor summative assessment; review of overall progress and achievement.
Clearly stated aimsClearly stated aims
For the programme/learning activity
– Clear simple course outlines/descriptors
– Easily understood intended learning outcomes
– Information on resources needed (if any)
– Information on any pre-requisites for participation
in the programme
– How you will know what you have learned
• Record of outcomes of process of
establishing learners’ starting points
• Previous knowledge and experience
• Limiting factors or inhibitions
• Practical support needs
• Personal aspects of why the learner is there
and concerns they may have
Initial AssessmentInitial Assessment
• Clearly stated and suitably challenging objectives for all programmes and, wherever feasible, individually
• In addition to the learning aim the learner may have their own goals and reasons – the tutor needs to be aware of these to make the learning effective
• Additional ‘soft’ outcomes around increased confidence, social skills, personal goals.
Individual Challenging GoalsIndividual Challenging Goals
• Records of learner self-assessment, group and peer assessment, tutor records of assessment activities and individual or group progress and achievement.
• Learners’ files, journals, diaries, portfolios, artwork,
• Videos, audiotapes, performances, exhibitions
• Displays, individual or group learner testimony,
• Artefacts, photographs and other forms of evidence
Formative Assessment and Feedback: Formative Assessment and Feedback: EvidenceEvidence
• Learner’s self assessment
• Tutor assessment

• Group reviews
• Joint reviews
• Learner satisfaction outcomes
• Other information that can be collected
