Maryland (1819). This would be a 9th grade US Government level authentic assessment.  I think it could be a fun way to assess knowledge of the branches of government, constitutional rights, and checks and balances. What do you guys think?]]> 2019-02-28 14:49:12 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/336419677 mhops10 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337322853 I like the idea of using McCulloch v. Maryland and there are lots of ways we can implement authentic assessment that relates to this. ]]> 2019-03-04 02:48:46 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337322853 mhops10 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337328999 This video is LONG but does a great job of explaining the case.]]> 2019-03-04 03:26:24 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337328999 mhops10 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337329483 "Authentic assessment has also become a regular part of many social science teachers’ repertoire. History teachers may assign groups to plan the founding of a moon colony, analyzing what would be necessary to make it succeed. A Venn diagram comparing the Articles of Confederation and the U.S. Constitution is a simple way to determine how well students truly understand the documents, while writing help wanted ads for members of the branches of government allow assessment of both government concepts and writing skills. Geography students can show what they know by creating travel brochures for the regions, states, or countries the class is studying. Older students can show their understanding of both significant court cases and the judicial process by holding mock court to “argue" the Marbury vs. Madison or Brown vs. Board of Education cases."

We could have the assessment part be a McCulloch argument, a Maryland argument, and a SCOTUS decision (since there are three of us, each of us could write one for the student exemplar). Through these arguments, we would be assessing how students understand the issues surrounding federalism, the Constitution, etc. Thoughts?? I also love political cartoons so we could go that route too if we want to do some drawing!]]> 2019-03-04 03:37:01 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337330957 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337720375 Matt I actually did my senior thesis for undergraduate on political cartoons! I love that idea even more than a mock trial!!!]]> 2019-03-05 00:05:34 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337720375 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337720881 https://changeagent.nelrc.org/in-the-classroom/teaching-with-political-and-editorial-cartoons/]]> 2019-03-05 00:08:51 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337720881 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/337721048 Maybe we could also have the students create memes or gifs. Fyi, this is Kristina.

I think that when we talk about McCulloch v. Maryland we need to also remember to incorporate this vocabulary because they are on the HSA's. This case is important for these terms because it demonstrates judicial review, separation of powers, checks and balances, and the limits on government. I am uploading my worksheet because it has the 13 principles of democracy on it, we don't have to actually use it for the project :)]]> 2019-03-05 20:51:04 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/338137452 mhops10 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/338626373 I like the idea of having some choice for in assessments like these, so we could do a mock trial writing option, political cartoon/meme/gif option, and something else. Great handout btw :)]]> 2019-03-06 21:25:06 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/338626373 as0103 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339185951 I think that McCulloch v. Maryland is a great way to show how the branches of government work.  It is a real life historical example that shows how the branches work in a practical way.  I agree that an authentic assessment is the way to move forward on this.]]> 2019-03-08 05:56:40 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339185951 as0103 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339186198 The Mock trial is a great way for students to experience what a trial is like in person. I think it is a engaging activity that can tie into the assessment.  ]]> 2019-03-08 05:59:24 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339186198 as0103 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339186354 I really like the worksheet, I believe it covers all the bases that need to be covered in an easy to understand way. ]]> 2019-03-08 06:00:57 UTC https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339186354 klm015 https://padlet.com/klm015/ri9tdn7amntb/wish/339365519 I added you guys to the Google Doc drive but here is the link if you are having difficulty getting in.
