In my classroom, this four week unit is the culmination of a
semester of technology class for 7th graders. It
finishes the same week that grades are due. In order to be
thorough in my assessment, and not have to rush with major
correcting that last week, I assess work on a weekly basis –
students receive 4 grades over the course of the month. Each
week’s assignment has a focus and a rubric. Because students
are keeping their work on computer files, they don’t turn
anything in to grade. So I “work the room” with a clipboard and
rubric in hand during the last 15 minutes of the 80 minute
block. I visually determine if they have achieved the goal of
that day’s lesson, have they understood the directions at the
beginning of the class, have they used their time well.
Students will receive points during the visual assessment, which
will be transferred to my grade book after class.
