Requirements for Self Evaluation



Due before midnight Sunday, December 8

This will be a two page maximum, multi-media electronic document, detailing your work for this class. This will be a hyper-text document that explains and links together the artifacts of your work. Done properly, this is an electronic portfolio of the work you did in this class, and can be a great advertisement of your technology skills.

This is NOT an instructor graded assignment. It does serve to document and demonstrate your use fo the "World Wide Web in the Curricula" skills.

There are two parts to your final assingment. Do your best work. Write this as if it were a "serious hypertext" essay -- a multi-media, hyperlinked short composition presenting the personal view of the author.


Part 1. Portfolio

This is a self-graded exercise and is worth 200 points towards your final grade in this class. You should invest some time in composing this document.

This is a two page maximum document that explains to others the work you accomplished in this class. It will contain six (6) sections, one section for each exam and one section for each book review. You are to briefly relate the work you personally completed to satisfy each of these course requirements. It is suggested that you include web links to materials that are examples of your work, or to web sites that were helpful to you. You may include images or pictures -- multimedia. Your "multimedia document" will become part of your web site for this class. The turn-in for Part 1 is making it part of your web site.

Examples of Portfolio docuemnts from past classes can be found here and here. Visit individual web sites and follow the link to "What we did."

Part 2. Self-evaluation

Here you will assign yourself a final grade in our class. You should already have grades for all the instructor-graded exams and book reviews. This final part provides you with an opportunity to evaluate your overall class performance. On one page, please give yourself a grade [using the point values] for each area of evaluation listed below (and as shown in the syllabus). Using the scale below assign yourself a final grade.

Provide a brief rationale to justify your final grade -- indicate how your grade reflects what you learned in class. The evaluation and grading scale are part of our syllabus.

Example

IG - indicates Instructor Graded.

My points earned in this class are as follows:
  • 200 of 200 points - Two Book Reviews IG
  • 100 of 100 points - Exam 1 IG
  • 100 of 100 points - Exam 2 IG
  • 100 of 100 points - Exam 3 IG
  • 95 of 100 points - Exam 4 IG
  • 90 of 100 points - Class Participation
  • 70 of 100 points - Timely completion of assignments. Deduct 10 points each time you turned in any class assignment after its due date.
  • 200 of 200 points - Portfolio and Self-evaluation
  • 2 absences, 1 excused.
  • ------------------
  • 955 -- my final grade is A ... using the grading scale in the syllabus. Note that your portfolio document (above) serves as your justification for your final grade in this class. Also, as explained at the beginning of classes, more than 2 unexcused absences automatically result in a grade of (D). Additional absences result in a grade of (F) unless an agreement is reached on how the work missed can be completed quickly.
  • The turn-in for Part 2 is an eMail message to George that includes the entire text as part of your eMail message.
