Strategies
Evaluation should be an ongoing process
Make evaluation a part of the classroom structure
Use rubrics and handouts provided in the Teacher's Toolkits to get started:
You can determine how the evaluations will be distributed
You can pick and choose from multiple rubric examples that cover all parts of the project
They allow for feedback that provides a complete picture of the students' work
Evaluations help lay the ground work for future student success
