Unit Self-Assessment and Reflection

__**Reflection Questions:**__

How did the U.S. government's response to societal problems reflect the needs, wants, and demands of its citizens during the Great Depression and during America's current economic crisis? AND/OR Evaluate the effectiveness of FDR's New Deal Plan and Obama's current Bail Out Plans.

__**Implementation of Reflection Question:**__

I will have students answer this question at the very beginning of the unit to assess their prior knowledge of the content. I will then implement this assessment question into my lessons periodically through out the unit to determine if students are receiving a better understanding of the content. We will address the question during class discussions, in journal entries, lesson activities, sponge activities, and in the unit test. This very same question will be found on these other assignments. The last written assignment of the unit will also require students to answer the reflection question. My goal is to gain the most complete insight into how sophisticated and accurate students' views are of the tasks, criteria, and standards they are to master.

__**Rubric/Evaluation:**__

Students will complete self assessment rubrics on their performances on the unit reflection question and their overall academic and behavioral performance in my class. Students will conduct these self assessments periodically through out the unit. I want students to assess and reflect on the unit question to determine if they have met the unit goals and objectives. I want students to think about what they need to do to better understand and answer the unit question. Based on their self assessments I also want students to determine if they have improved.
