Formal and Informal Assessment and Feedback Plan

	What tasks, strategies, instruments	How the processes, how often?	Why how do the selected tools support your learning goals and the learning principles guiding your design?
a) to enable continuous/frequent feedback between you and the students	rubric that gives sequence of tasks rubric with clear, definite list of expectations	frequent oral report checkpoints at least 3 times during the project	digital, camera, computer, software, and tape player will facilitate both written and spoken language and acquisition of new vocabulary along with technology skills
b) to encourage the students to reflect on their learning progress and achievement	peer evaluation of each other’s work at various stages of the project	frequent teacher comment as they interact with the software, plan, and write their autobiographies	the computer and printer will enable printout of the drafts at various stages and students can easily peer evaluate each other’s work
c) to determine your students’ learning progress and achievement	rubric comparison with writing samples from last fall	end-of-project presentation	computer will allow presentation via large screen monitor and the importance of written language via technology will be understood by the students
