Cognitive

Affective

Successful completion of this project will improve/affect student learning:

Cognitive experiences include using all levels of Bloom’s as the student decides on the figurative language example and how to communicate his idea. Designing the page utilizes psychomotor skill practice when the student uses the desktop publishing program to make the product. Positive affective experiences are embedded in peer conferencing as student ideas are validated and developed. Finally, the finished book shows collaborative success with all members contributing.

How I will evaluate progress toward established goals (tools):

Teacher eval student: Provide checklist that outlines steps to complete cognitive portion (planning your page), provide rubric for student to self-check work against expectation (page criteria), provide time to collaborate with peers to edit (peer review guidelines and goals achieved student response), and provide each student with a class anthology book.

Mentor eval self: Provide checklist that outlines goals for mentor including content lesson goals and needs, technology lesson goals and needs, timelines, and perform periodic checks and adjust as needed.

 

We agree to work as a cooperative team to implement this plan:
