How do I involve student in the assessment process?

Providing expectation rubric to students.

When students know exactly what they are expected to accomplish on a given timeline, they are empowered to be responsible for their own grades.

Updating Lex-Connect with current data and grades will allow students to know where they stand as far as grades.
