Imagine that you work for X company. Your boss wants you to do research on a competitor. How do you go about finding unbiased information?
2. Criteria & Standards
There are many learning outcomes that I have for my students, and I often have to pick just one or two to deal with in class. For this assignment I'll use the following learning outcome:
Student identifies significant concepts within their topic and generates a flexible list of keywords in order to find a relevant scholarly article
Criteria: Student determines topic keywords.
High Achievement: Student determines multiple keywords that accurately reflect all aspects of their topic.
Proficient Achievement: Student determines some keywords but they do not reflect all aspects of their topic.
Beginning Achievement: Students does not determine keywords that accurately reflect the topic.
3. Self-Assessment
I can have students write a one-minute paper expressing what they learned or what they still need to know.
4. FIDeLity Feedback
I can use different technology so that I can assess in real-time. For example, I can have students fill out a Google Form, and as they are filling it out, I can comment on their work. Or I could use Padlet to have students display scholarly articles or keywords, and again, I can comment on their work immediately.
