Agenda

Wed Dec. 15
1) Update: Project update
from each person/team--I will be looking for the
overall structure (student part and teacher part)
to your project that has been provided in
class.
2) Alignment:
Your project should show
its alignment with:
- IL Learning
Standards
- Standards of an
appropriate external accrediting agency (such as
NATEF, etc)
- TCD School Improvement
Goal Number 1 (our discussion last time about
lower level and higher level learning
objectives)
3) Websites: Those who
have not yet shared with the group, be prepared to
do so. Each person should have his/her own website.
It might be minimal (provide basic information)
then, as a major information source, it will link
to your program website. The intent of this
activity is that at a minimum, each person has a
website and, in addition, there is a website for
your program as well.
4) Technology
competency
Please make explicit in
your project what particular competencies students
will need to succeed. Recall the ones referenced in
this course:
- The Internet
(including e-mail and drag and drop
capabilities)
- Word processing
- Spreadsheets
- Databases
- Multi-media (video,
powerpoint, etc.)
- Calculator or
computer-based labs
5) A data exploration
activity--if there is
time.

Guidelines for developing student assessment
