Answer the written questions for the standardized exam. Follow the specific instructions on the exam paper. Longer response questions will be given more weighting, but otherwise the written questions are marked holistically. You will present the work of your best essay to the class.
Although the teacher will grade most of the assignment, self-assessment and peer assessment are also important, as seen in the rubric below (the teacher has the final judgement of the quality):
Categories | Level 1 (50-59%) | Level 2 (60-69%) | Level 3 (70-79%) | Level 4 (80-100%) |
Knowledge | Limited understanding of the text | Some understanding of the text | Good understanding of the text | Excellent understanding of the text |
Application (peer assessment) | Limited skills in presenting written work: boring to watch | Some skill in presenting written work: mildly interesting to watch | Skill demonstrated in presenting written work: interesting | Excellent level of skill in presenting written work: very interesting to watch |
