Student Engagement Rubric



Student Reflection and Ownership

Is a major focus areas as we implement Personalized Learning.  We felt it important to consider how we focus on helping students take ownership of their learning.

With rubric definitions of expectations, we move our students in this direction.  The rubric captures the 12 professional skills P-TECH identified as important for readying students for the workforce.  
  
As a school, we use the rubric to help focus conversations with students. This has led to great discussions with students (and their parents) as well as provide more insight into how students approach goal setting and holding themselves responsible for their learning and progress.

Teachers use weekly and some as part of their station rotations and direct conferencing with students.
