What Went Well?
  • Nice that criteria was defined in the four categories












What Didn't Go So Well?
  • Our group did not use the rubrics enough with the students up front. We reviewed them towards the end which seemed counterintuitive as far as setting the students up for success.
  • The rubrics did not appear to guide student and teacher work
  • We completed the rubrics a few weeks after the Capstone time was "over." This made it feel disconnected and not as valuable for the teacher and student






Suggestions for Next Year?
  • Check to make sure rubrics have child-friendly language
  • Have students self-assess using rubrics after presentation
  • Teacher assess using same rubrics
  • Students and teacher meet to share rubrics and debrief
