Assessment
Students develop a KWL to demonstrate their background and understanding at the commencement of the topic. During the progress of the unit, student groups will keep a learning journal to record the work achieved each session alongside the timeline that they have developed. Interested students will be supported to develop a blog as their learning journal. Journals & draft documents will be viewed by the teacher mid term and at the end of the unit. The teacher will also conference with each group at this time. A rubric will be provided at the introduction of each task to guide student’s work – multimedia presentation, brochure or newsletter and website. Any graphs, charts, graphic organisers, planning & management documents will collected and collated as part of the final assessment, as will students’ self-reflection and their contribution(s) to the class wiki. Students’ contributions to the final discussion regarding the Essential Question ‘How have Europeans impacted on Australia?’ will also be assessed.
