Evaluation tasks
This task is an opportunity for you to use what you have learned in Tasks 1-6. Print out the Evaluation Rubric in the left task bar at the top of the page. This will tell you what is expected as you perform this task. Remember that although you are working as a group and cooperating to create a product, each person is responsible for their own ideas and records. Your evaluation will be on your contribution to your group. Groups remember that each person’s ideas are important and should be included in your final project.
