Rationale:

• To use self assessment as evidence of learning
  • Google Slides used in class is here

Criteria

• Create an open website that chronicles the learning you have done during this unit
  • It could be labs, demonstrations, discussions, activities in class, assignments/quizzes you’ve done, even discussions you have in and/or out of class. Just make sure you record it!
• The e-portfolio will be evidence of your learning. When the unit is over, it will be used to evaluate the learning you have done for the unit.
• A way to get started is to reflect each day on:
  • 3 things you learned;
  • 2 questions you still have;
  • 1 thing that intrigued you
    • (Or 2 things that intrigued you and 1 question you still have)
  • You can reflect on things outside of class if it’s applicable!
• At the end of the unit, you’ll be asked to submit work that best reflects your learning. Reflect by writing a short paragraph at the end of the post you’re submitting. Make connections to the unit by reflecting on the 3-2-1 posts:
  • “How did this post relate/connect to the submission requirement?”
  • If the same post is used for multiple submissions, there should be a reflection for each submission. ie; there would be multiple “after unit reflections” for the post (link) that you submit.

Submission Requirements

• You’ll be asked to submit instances where you:
  • analysed technologies that apply principles and concepts relating to energy transformations
  • assessed the social and environmental impact of technologies relating to energy energy transformations
  • investigated energy transformations and the law of conservation of energy
  • solved energy transformation problems
  • demonstrated an understanding of work, efficiency, power, gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, nuclear energy, and thermal energy and its transfer (heat).
• Remember, this assignment replaces a unit test so do your best!

Resources

• The website you’re creating is a daily blog where you can show your learning throughout the unit. Instructions are here
• Some possible web tools are:
  • Wix
  • Weebly
  • Blogger
  • WordPress
  • Google Sites (Click on “New Google Sites“)

Evaluation
