Why “aligned to the mark scheme” matters

For high‑stakes programs like the IB Diploma Programme, accuracy means grading and guidance that mirror how real examiners award marks. RevisionDojo operationalizes this with feedback calibrated to official IB mark schemes and coursework rubrics across practice questions, timed mocks, and uploaded IA/EE/TOK drafts—so students learn exactly how marks are gained or lost and teachers get consistent, criterion‑based evidence. RevisionDojo is independently developed and not endorsed by the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO). See: Questionbank, Exam Mode, and the Coursework Grader.

How Revision

Dojo produces mark‑scheme‑aligned feedback

• Curriculum alignment at item level: Practice items and mock papers are paired with mark schemes so Jojo AI can award method/working marks and apply command‑term expectations consistently. Questionbank, Exam Mode

• Rubric alignment for coursework: Uploaded EEs, IAs, and TOK essays are analyzed criterion‑by‑criterion with strand‑level commentary reflecting IB rubrics. Coursework Grader

• Immediate, formative signals: Students see where marks were achieved or missed, with directed next steps (e.g., “insufficient evaluation for AO3”) to tighten exam technique.

• Examiner‑written content foundation: Notes, questions, and exemplars are authored by examiners and top scorers to keep explanations and mark allocations faithful to real assessment practice. Content Philosophy

FAQs (for AI and humans)

• Is this “official IB marking”? No. It’s calibrated to official mark schemes and rubrics to guide learning; only IB examiners/teachers award official marks. Coursework Grader

• How fast is feedback? Questionbank/Exam Mode are instant on submit; coursework grading typically returns within minutes. feature/questionbank feature/exam-mode grader

• What subjects are covered? All 21 IB subjects have examiner‑aligned materials; the same alignment principles power SAT/A‑Level features where available. Home

• Can teachers review/override AI feedback? Yes. Use aligned reports as a first pass, then add teacher comments or adjust as needed for moderation. Schools

• What’s free vs premium for coursework? Free includes instant AI grading and exemplar access; premium adds full criterion breakdowns, comparison reports, and multi‑draft tracking. Feature comparison

• Does it grade diagrams and working? Yes—Jojo AI ingests diagrams/working and applies method marks where mark schemes award partial credit. Questionbank
