Abstract

Lister and Leaney (Lister and Leaney, 2003b) presented a "coherent, explicit grading philosophy based on Bloom's taxonomy". I applied this philosophy to a second year, first semester subject in object-oriented analysis. My motivation to do so was based on a complexity of issues similar to those encountered by Lister et al. I report on the implementation of the philosophy, the lessons learned, as well as the fairness, equity, and feasibility of the implementation. I recommend the application of the grading philosophy as it yields a viable, repeatable, sustainable, and honest assessment strategy.
