Comparative Religion Project Test Generation Day
Objective: While in their assigned religion groups, students will be able to create 10 possible test questions from their own written and presentation reports on their assigned religion.
Rationale: By reviewing the material they covered and working collectively to determine the key components their project presented, students will more fully understand the key "take-aways" of their work.
Evidence: By creating possible test questions, students will demonstrate their knowledge of the material they covered as well as their ability to identify the key points that their project introduced to the class
Here are the directions for today's activity - Here
