English 8/9 (1)

Today students began the process of designating criteria to their projects.

Students were given a demonstration on how I would generate criteria for students on this project.

Criteria

Mastery of subject ·      can they talk about it ·      can they teach it ·      can they write about it ·      do they know it ·      have they researched it ·      have they looked at more than one source ·      can they compare their knowledge to that of another

Do they have a rationale for choosing this topic? ·      explain why they chose the topic ·      number of reasons ·      quality of reasons

Can they assess their own learning? ·      rubric ·      create criteria ·      assess their peer’s learning ·      assess their own learning ·      correct and edit their own work ·      make improvements ·      ask peers for feedback

Did they show an ability to read for information ·      provide sources ·      talk about sources

Can they write about your topic? ·      write a test ·      write a paragraph ·      show a diagram ·      write a script

Using their own chosen prescribed learning outcomes and depending upon their subject, students began to create criteria for their own projects.  This criteria will be developed into a rubric for which to assess their projects.
