Evaluation Criteria for The Postage Stamp Project

Daily Ten Points

            You will earn ten points each day in the computer lab.  Remain on task, treat the equipment with the proper respect, and cooperate with your partner, so that you can earn all ten points.  Points will be deducted for infractions of the normal rules.

 

From the Desk of the President

            Each organizing worksheet is worth ten points.  Make sure that all the questions are answered (thoroughly!) and that you have enough information to take back to your “office” and continue to work.  Once your days in the computer lab are over, it is your responsibility to gather more information if you need it.  Further information can be found on the “Presidential Requirement Sheet” link.
