Assessment and Evaluation
Teachers measure student achievement using level one to four on these achievement categories: Knowledge/Understanding 14%
Thinking/Inquiry 7%
Communication 7%
Application 42%
Culminating Assignment 30% (administered in the final month of the semester)
70% of the grade is based on evaluations taken throughout the course. They may be in the form of oral/written tests, performance
tests, essays, learning logs, conferences, or projects/presentations.
30% of the grade is based on a final evaluation. The evaluation may take the form of an exam, a performance task, a presentation, an
essay, a portfolio, or any other method of evaluation suitable to the course content and expectations. There are no exceptions as it is
considered essential.
In every unit there will be at least one essential summative evaluation that must be submitted. In the case of a minor summative
assignment not submitted on the due date, 2% will be deducted a day to a total of 8%. After the fourth day, a mark of zero will be
assigned.
For major summative, the student must hand in either the assignment or the Late Submission Appeal Form (signed by a
parent/guardian). If on the due date, the assignment or the Late Submission Appeal Form is not submitted to the teacher, a mark of
zero will be assigned. If the assignment is not handed in by the due date as outlined on the Late Submission Appeal Form, a mark
of zero will be assigned.
Some due dates are non-negotiable (e.g., labs, presentation, seminars, tests, exams). If tasks are not completed, they cannot be
evaluated and a mark of zero will be assigned.
