Evaluation Tool Photocopy the rubric provided and use it to evaluate each student individually. Remember that a rubric sets out clear criteria and standards for assessing different levels of performance to make transparent the process of synthesizing evidence into an overall evaluative judgment. We are providing you with an analytic rubric that separates different assessment criteria addressing them comprehensively to make evaluation easier for you. We suggest that you give students a copy of the rubric before they present their posters and explain each of the aspects that will be assessed so that they can take an active part in the evaluation process. You should be totally familiarized with the criteria as well so you can handle them effectively while they present their products. Just circle or highlight the achieved level of performance for each criterion on it. You may also include additional specific or overall comments at the end.

Review The aim of this section is to have students perform communicative activities in teams or pairs so they can practice the skills they learned during the unit. It is a great opportunity to give individualized support to struggling students. Another useful strategy is to promote tutoring between pairs, so advanced students may help their classmates. In any case, monitor them closely while they work on these activities so they feel confident enough to attain the achievements by themselves.
