Rubric for Final Guitar Design
This excellent article from ASCD is written by Jay McTighe and Ken O'Connor explores seven assessment practices that will improve student learning.
In this series we explore the world of assessment and feedback in our new reality.
This five-point rubric assesses the following aspects of historical thinking:
Establishes/Argues Position
Citing Evidence
Corroboration
Assessing Account Status
Contextualization
The following rubrics (in English & French) represent an evaluation system for objects (resources) found within the Resource Bank. An object could include images, books, lessons, units, assessments, and more. For this evaluation, any component that can exist as a stand-alone qualifies as an object. The rubrics in this packet can be applied across content areas and object types.
This is a collection of excellent articles related to assessment best practices and using assessments as a tool to empower students.
Students will answer the following multiple-choice questions regarding how microeconomic principles can really impact how individuals make financial decisions. A presentation is attached with some definitions and information that may assisst with completing this assignment. Answer key can be found in the Teacher Only Discussion section of the Resource Bank. https://resourcebank.ca/groups/financial-literacy-teachers/254/discussions/
This collection features resources to support teaching Module 6C: Applying Personal Spending Plans from the Saskatchewan Financial Literacy curriculum.This is a full project that can be used in Module 6C for Financial Literacy 30. This usually takes the students about 5 hours to complete and it is very comprehensive to cover all future spending. The assignment requires the students to "screenshot" proof of items they found for their budget (and support each item with evidence). Students really enjoy this project (and adults have used it too for budgeing in real life!). Students may chose to have $0 spending on some items (pets, legal, etc), but they should explain their reasoning for entering a zero. As well, students should enter savings into their budget (at least 10% of earnings).
Answer the following questions in complete sentences regarding how microeconomic principles can really impact how individuals make financial decisions.
Ever wondered why we act the way we do and make the choices we make? Abraham Maslow, an American psychologist believed that our actions and hidden desires are driven by a series of needs, which he organized into a pyramid. According to Maslow, our most basic needs, like food, air, and water, are the ones we need for our basic survival. So, our primary motivation is to meet these survival needs first. It does not matter how much money you have or how fancy your house is if your hungry and homeless. Once we have these fundamental needs covered, that’s when we can start focusing on our “higher order” needs.
Module 33 MacroeconomicsAssignment Instructions: Answer the following questions regarding how macroeconomic principles can really impact how individuals make financial decisions.
FL10.1 Explore how value systems, social factors, personal experiences and cultural backgrounds can influence financial decision making. Whether we realize it or not, we use money everyday! However, we’re not always aware of how we use our money or why we make the financial decisions we do. People decide how to use their money based on their personal values, or what they judge to be important in their lives. Take some time now to identify what your students value! Students can discuss their personal financial decision-making process, identify their money personality based on personal behavior and choices and analyze financial decisions and the influence of personal/external factors.
Students design and develop a useful assistive device for people challenged by fine motor skill development who cannot grasp and control objects. In the process of designing prototype devices, they learn about the engineering design process and how to use it to solve problems. After an introduction about the effects of disabilities and the importance of hand and finger dexterity, student pairs research, brainstorm, plan, budget, compare, select, prototype, test, evaluate and modify their design ideas to create devices that enable a student to hold and use a small paintbrush or crayon. The design challenge includes clearly identified criteria and constraints, to which teams rate their competing design solutions. Prototype testing includes independent evaluations by three classmates, after which students redesign to make improvements. To conclude, teams make one-slide presentations to the class to recap their design projects. This activity incorporates a 3D modeling and 3D printing component as students generate prototypes of their designs. However, if no 3D printer is available, the project can be modified to use traditional and/or simpler fabrication processes and basic materials.
Assistive Technology (AT) is any piece of technology that helps a student with or without a disability increase or maintain his or her level of functioning. Ex. Speech-to-text, text-to-speech and word prediction software.
This Module offers an overview of assistive technology (AT) and explores ways to expand students' access to it in the classroom (est. completion time: 2 hours).
