Responsibilities

Editors are required for a specific project that involves evaluating assignments submitted by students for a HigherEd client. The students are professionals who have enrolled in courses to upgrade their skills and learn more.
The exact scope of work for the project is outlined as follows-

- Consultant will perform the role of “graders” and will evaluate student touchstones/assessments for a variety of courses submitted on the client platform.

- The courses belong to a variety of subjects including but not limited to Business, Science, English, and Social Sciences, and Technology.

- Each course has 1-3 assignments, known as Touchstones. Touchstones are essay-type, application-based assignments where students must apply concepts from the course to real-life scenarios.

- Subject-matter expertise is NOT required to grade Touchstones because grading is more about understanding the rubrics assigned to a course and the specific requirements from the course.

- Consultants will have a daily target in terms of number of Touchstones to grade. This will reflect their efficiency and will vary, depending upon the course they are grading.





- The specific number of weekly touchstones in the Consultant's queue will be based on actual submissions received from students as well as the Consultant’s performance on quality metrics.

- Consultants will be evaluated weekly on efficiency and quality.
