Senior Project Oral Presentation Rubric
Students are recorded giving feedback to their peers using the Oral Presentation Rubric as a guide. This allows students to better internalize the expectations of the oral presentation for themselves. The class spends a significant amount of time focused on the “Presentation Skills” and “Use of Digital Media” domains when giving peer-to-peer feedback.

Accountability Document
This is the accountablity document that was created to help with two potential issues. First, there is a fear that students will only do the activities that they want rather than what they need. Next, in this scenario, students may not be getting access to all the opportunites in the classroom. Note the grade section, which is where students are given a monthly grade. Also, the starred items can receive bonuses.
