Presentation Scoring Guide

Reflections

Use both informal and formal methods for checking student understanding. Informal: Monitor and listen carefully to student thinking, ask probing questions such as How do you know that works?, review drafts, and give students feedback as they work through project activities. Have students check work with their firm members. Formal: Assess students’ understanding and readiness for the bridge building project by using the midpoint scoring guide and re-teach ideas if necessary. Provide the presentation scoring guide to students and explain the expectations before they start working. Assess students’ final portfolio presentation, which includes the model bridge using the presentation scoring guide. Ask students to reflect on their learning by answering the Essential and Unit Questions.
