Summative Assessment: Curating your learning

It’s time to pull the course together, and for you to consider what tasks best demonstrate your learning in this course. 

As you know, a course mark is made up of two parts: 

  • Course Assessment is valued at 70%
  • Summative Assessment is valued at 30%

The Evidence of Learning Document: Final Edition (similar to the one you completed at midterm with additional choices to reflect the whole semester) is the place where you curate (select, organize, and present) evidence of your learning. 

A significant part of the Evidence of Learning Document: Final Edition is The #CDNcraft Rubric. This rubric is THE place for you to curate evidence of your learning specifically tied to the #CDNcraft project. 

Today and tomorrow, you will review the rubric, complete or revise pieces you choose as evidence of your learning, and finally, link that evidence into the rubric. Below is an image of the top portion of a student completed rubric from last semester. Notice that the student began by highlighting all the work he completed in the criteria column. Then he decided which items he would curate and the level for that work based on the feedback received on each item and the descriptors found at the bottom of the rubric. 

Then, you will review the Evidence of Learning Document: Final Edition. You will complete or revise pieces you choose as evidence of your learning and link that evidence into the document. 

The final day you can submit work to me for feedback (so those items that you decide to link into either your CDNcraft rubric or your Evidence of Learning Document) is June 2 at midnight. 

Once your build is finished, you will need to share it out. One way to do this is to create a screencast video.  (See examples here).

  1.  Go to Chrome Web Store and search for SCREENCASTIFY
  2. View Screencasting your BUILD. 
  3. In your video, make sure to include the following:
  • Your name, grade and class
  • Explanation of what your built
  • Explanation of how your build connects to your vision of reconciliation
  • A tour of your build

THEN share your build with me via the assignment submission page.

Student Final Project Reflection

The Evidence of Learning Document is due no later than June 9 at midnight. 

The summative assessment (15% of your final grade) will begin on June 12. The exam (15% of your final grade) will take place on Monday, June 26th (I believe?).

Both the summative writing and exam will be assessed by me.
