Research and Planning LAP charts
Here are the research and planning lap charts. This week we will be focussing on these and marking each others' as well as your own. Focus on getting your blogs up to date and the quality of your reflection.
You all need to print your own copy. You have each been assigned another person to peer assess. Once peer assessed you need to self assess. Teacher comments will then be added with a provisional mark.
24/10/12
Work for year 13s is to look at the assessment criteria for production of music video and mark the following music videos. Homework you must be prepared to have your blogs ready with all research and planning as we shall be grading these and peer assessing these using exam board criteria.
