  • Exams (2) 30%

  • Portfolio & Portfolio Presentation 25%

9. Explanation of the assessment criteria:
Attendance, punctuality, participation, and studentship:
Attendance, punctuality, and participation

Attendance is required. This is an activity-based course so "getting notes from a friend" will not replicate the learning experience of a missed session. If you miss, for whatever reason, more than three sessions, you will be withdrawn from the course. The expectation is that you will be present, on time, and prepared for every class. Just as any professional teacher does in school, in the event of an emergency or other special circumstances, please contact the instructor if you will not be present in class. Those who are more than 10 minutes late to class will be counted as late. Three late marks will count as an absence. Consult the CCNY academic calendar when planning vacations or travel.
Candidates are expected to come to class prepared. This entails reading all of the assigned materials before class and completing all of the activities included in the assigned materials. In addition, from time to time candidates will have to read articles and other materials that will be presented by their fellow candidates in class. Active participation and engagement in class discussions and activities are expected at all times.
Studentship

Studentship is your eagerness to learn, reflected in a positive, searching attitude and in your full, purposeful, and meaningful participation in coursework and class discussions. Studentship necessitates your taking responsibility for your educational experience. You will be evaluated based on your preparedness, your willingness to participate in activities and discussions in a reflective and professional manner, and your ability to ask questions that represent thoughtful reflection on the material presented and the readings. It is insufficient to merely complete the activities. You are expected to think deeply about the pedagogy embedded in them. Good teachers must also be good colleagues. Thus you will also be assessed on how well you work with others. See the studentship assessment rubric available in our class blog (spanishgrammaranditspedagogy.wordpress.com)
Demo lesson: Each candidate will present a demo lesson individually. The specific level and topic will be selected at random. The candidate has to provide the professor a copy of the lesson plan, which must include all the necessary elements (topic, objective, assessment instruments, materials, etc.) and be double spaced in 12 point Times New Roman font. There will be a brief Q&A session after each lesson. You could find the rubric that will be used to evaluate these lessons in our class blog and the lesson plan template on page 8. These demo lessons will be presented on Dec 2nd and Dec 9th.
Self-evaluation of demo lesson: On Dec 16thnd, candidates will turn in a self-evaluation of their demo lesson. The candidate has to focus the reflection on specific elements of Danielson's Framework and the edTPA rubrics. The professor will provide more information about this evaluation as the semester progresses. You can find the rubric that will be used to self-assess the demo lesson in our class blog.
Classroom presentations & homework assignments: Students in small groups will be expected to prepare small 5-10 minute weekly presentations on a variety of topics related to implementing grammar in a lesson. These presentations, based on the readings and/or the grammatical topic for that week, will be conducted in Spanish and peer-assessed. Students will take turns to be the designated speaker on a particular week to share the group views with the rest of the class. Each group will get a grade for these presentations. (See rubrics on our class blog: spanishgrammaranditspedagogy.wordpress.com)
Exams: There will be two written exams throughout the semester (on Oct 28th and Dec 16th ). These exams will be theoretical and practical in nature.
Portfolio: Throughout the semester, candidates will put together a portfolio of 8-10 lesson plans and materials that can be used to teach specific grammar points to Spanish as a second language students. The professor will indicate what specific strategies must be implemented in each lesson plan/material. Lesson plans must follow the expected format and must include all the required components. (See the lesson plan template on page 8.) In addition, lesson plans must be written in English (double spaced and 12 point Times New Roman font). The candidate must also include all the materials and texts used in the design of these lessons. (Using activities from commercially available textbooks is not allowed.) The portfolio must include a table of contents and all the artifacts must be collated in a binder. This portfolio is due on Dec 9th. It is highly recommended that you meet with your classmates to share ideas and give each other feedback. The rubric that your professor will use to evaluate these portfolios can be found in our class blog.
Portfolio presentation: For our Dec 16th class, photocopy one of the lesson plans you will include in the portfolio (and the materials to be used to deliver this lesson) that you think will be beneficial for your classmates in the future. Prepare a 3 minute presentation in English explaining why this lesson plan reflects how grammar should be taught in order to develop oral and/or written communication skills. There will be time for a short Q&A session after each presentation. See the rubric in our class blog.

12. Notes:

  • From time to time, class discussions will lead to questions that will require further investigation. These questions may be based on ideas or concepts presented in the readings or on general questions that arise in class. When this happens, the instructor will assign these questions to a student or to a group of students; he, she, or they is/are responsible for consulting various sources of information and presenting the findings in the next class. These sources may be textbooks, articles, and other reliable sources. If in doubt, candidates should ask the instructor for suggestions.

  • All written work must be typed and double spaced using 12-point Times New Roman font.
