ASSESSMENT STRATEGIES:
With this class being online, it is hard to really get substantial formative assessments. I am
able to see what they are thinking and the steps students take by reading and responding to their
blogs. How the student receive points is if they hit the word count and stay on topic for their
discussion board writings and explanations of what they did that week and turned in their image(s). If
they do both of these tasks, 100% is awarded to the students.
