Teacher notes:

• Students do the presentations and assessments.
• The Teacher might want to discuss these assessments with the group members in the following weeks, as a beneficial point of review and reflection, providing constructive feedback for the learners.
• Students need to record their assessment marks in the Class Journal.
• The teacher now has the grades for mini-presentations and final projects.
• Mini-presentation The marks for the mini-presentations represent a suggested 10% of the final grade. Therefore the possible total (200 maximum) must be divided by 20.
• Final project The marks for the final project represent a suggested 20% of the final grade. Therefore the teacher will have to adjust the student evaluations to represent this score. The teacher might want to give weighting to his/her own assessments.
