For the first three LAPs, students completed some basic preliminary assessments in the form of checks for understanding that were centered on promoting opinion, discussion, and advancement of personal interest.  Then, students expanded on those discussions in their research.  The research project had a rubric that delivered one whole group grade for students.  However, the rubric was broken down into sections and each partnership was responsible for completing a section of the rubric (as well as one section that every member of the team completed together) so each of the partnerships got a score as well to determine their progress and success with their research.  <\/span>The partner work sections received full points for discussing at least two elements (places, foods, etc.) in depth by answering the provided questions. They were also judged by the effort they showed in their research and presentation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students and parents received a score out of 100 for their culminating assessment of the final research project.  This score represented the work of the entire group and did not reflect individual students.  If individual students or parents wish to see an explanation of the grade, or wish to see how an individual or partnership performed within the group, I have a record available of how each partnership performed.  The reason I chose to keep everyone\u2019s grade as one whole group grade was because students who completed their sections early were instructed to help other sections, and the whole group was instructed to collaborate and make their presentation cohesive.<\/span><\/p>\n
