Self-Assessment and Assignment Checklist

Lisa: Look over these items from the Rubric and let me know if you think we have accomplished these things.

X ||  || Decided to use June's wiki space since at the start of the project I was still finding my way around using the wiki. || X ||  || Daily phone calls, emails and wiki communication are thoroughly covered under this category. || The partners align the stated audience, content and the presentation tool with the audience. I think we have more work here... Done! Our targeted audience is 4th & 5th grade students. || X ||  || Is our audience the children (gr. 4-5) or the teachers? I'm not sure. Can it be both? After all, the librarian will be working collaboratively with both teachers and students.
 * ITEM || Yes || No || Notes ||
 * COLLABORATION
 * Partners find each other in O.D.2.2a, negotiate a wiki space, post the URL to BBW, and begin their **wiki collaboration** in **Module 2.2 as** evidenced by the **wiki history page** || X
 * COMMUNICATION
 * **BOTH** partners use the **discussion feature on all three** of their A.2.4 wiki pages || X
 * KWLQ
 * Both partners contribute to the KWLQ. They indicate their contributions by using different font colors. Partners share on the wiki or link to notes their investigations. They record complete citation in the KWLQ page. || X ||  || June needs to add her citations. ||
 * AUDIENCE

As per our phone conversation 10/12, we will focus on grades 4 and 5 students. || The original presentation includes a rationale and information about the process. (We need a stated rationale) Family histories provide an insight into cultural and personal identity- (cultural backgrounds) June will look at 5th grade son's textbook for two other project ideas.
 * CONTENT: INQUIRY
 * The steps learners engage in are clearly communicated.
 * Possible projects are included. (Projects must be the team's own ideas--not ones you read about or found on the Web.) We must include ideas for a project- look at the storyboard ideas under UBD ||  ||   || Rationale:

As per our phone conversation, we agreed that "topic" meant The Big6--not cultural backgrounds. || The content of the presentation establishes relevance to the target audience and presents it in a persuasive manner. || X ||  || Insert: Nested self-checking; no more than three items. || The presentation tool is especially effective for the audience and the content. It adds an especially persuasive element to the work. especially persuasive element : I really don't know what this means. My interpretation is that it demonstrates clearly the usefulness and importance of using this particular inquiry method to approach and complete the project or assignment. || X ||  || We will use the PPT (no Animoto) for this assignment. We will jazz it up! Find help for transitions and/or voiceover. The intro using Animoto, the voice over at the beginning and the voice recording to sum it up at the end are "especially effective" for the audience and content. || page is included or is provided separately if it is not appropriate to include in the presentation. The Works Cited page shows that the partnership investigated this topic BEYOND the resources provided. At least five such works were cited. (We have some other resources we will need to include- I think I can cover that- I'll look today.) || X ||  || We have works consulted at the end of the ppt. We have separate citations for the Big 6 on that wiki page and separate citations for UBD on that wiki page. I think we are in good shape! ||
