Results Analysis
Strengths (from proficient and above) Weaknesses (from below proficient)
Students who scored 3s and 4s were confident in using technology to enhance
their work, and they became more comfortable in sharing their ideas with one
another.
Concepts and Skills Understood (as demonstrated in assessment(s))
Students demonstrated the ability to build up an individual’s political
viewpoints while not necessarily stating the obvious about their beliefs. In
addition, students grasped the concept of how media can have a large
influence on public opinion in regards to politics (e.g. facts are presented in
specific ways to elicit specific emotions).
Students who scored 1s and 2s were hesitant to work with a partner,
especially if they were not well acquainted with them. As a result, a lack of
communication was common among these students.
Concepts and Skills NOT Understood (as demonstrated in assessment(s))
Students had difficulty realizing the polarized nature of politics and media.
Nearly every piece of student work was tame, and a proponent view of their
individual. Few students seemed to realize advertisements and media used to
attack oponents have become common.
