Evaluation

Each of you must answer all of the questions for your own individual role. This will be looked at separately from your groups ability to form a group concensus. The answers to the questions will be checked for accuracy and clarity. You will be expected to effectivly support your arguments for your "viewpoint" during the whole group discussion. As a group, you will be graded on how you attempt to come to a group concensus, how involved each student is. (If someone is not involved because the group does not allow that child to be involved, the group grade will go down. If somone refuses to help, only that childs grade will be affected.) Your poster will be checked for neatness and clarity of idea.
