Assessment
Our three key areas are:
- Technology
- PG&S
- EEV Collaboration
You will be judged throughout on:
- Engagement (includes engagement in all activities of the semester, plus
attendance and participation in class and in any outside class activities
related to TEAM)
- Meaning. This gets at the quality of your work. We will look for the
quality of your writing in such instruments as input sheets, logs, online
entries, and synthesis journals. We will look at what you say, how you
say it, and how well you say it. We will look at the quality of your products.
Some of our tools include:
- Logs
- Weekly In-Class Input Sheets
- Online activities (e.g., online conferences, e-mails, online
surveys)
- Attendance and in-class participation charts
- Outside of class meetings and activities (e.g., EEV collaboration
events and meetings, EEV workshops)
- Products (e.g., your developmental and professional portfolios
in year two, synthesis journals, various outcomes data collection tools)
- Questionnaires on collaborations and creating Constructivist Learning
Environments (CLEs)
Two courses. How will we differentiate between them?
Your TEAM experience will be unified as though it is one experience with
components including continually overlapping Technology, EEV, and PG/S. We
will not think in terms of two separate courses. When we grade, though, if
we feel that your work falls between two grades, we will give you one grade
of each.
Who will assess?
- You
- Peers
- Mentors
- Outsiders
Mentors will be responsible for the assessment but consider the input from
you, your peers, and the outsiders.
Grading Policy at Long Island University.
See http://www.cwpost.liu.edu/cwis/cwp/gradingpolicy.html .
On occasion, we will give an incomplete (INC). When we do, we will set up
a clear contract with the student with outcomes and timelines. More than
one grade of C or lower will result in your not graduating.
