Promotion to Module 2

Learning Goals

Promoted students will demonstrate proficiency in the material covered in Module 1.

Projects

You will complete four projects throughout Module 1, each of which will be assessed according to a rubric. A passing project will “Meet Expectations” (per the rubric) for most categories. You must submit every project to be eligible for promotion.

• Week 1-2: Solo Project #1
  • The Solo Project is evaluated, but does not count toward promotion
• Week 2-3: Solo Project #2
• Week 3-4: Paired Project
  • You must pass EITHER the Paired Project OR Solo Project #2
• Week 5-6: Group Project
  • You must pass the Final Project
  • No rubric category can score Below Expectations

Assessments and Independent Challenges

Assessments

• Final Independent Challenge (aka “Final IC”, Week 6) In order to be promoted to Module 2:
  • You must complete iteration 3 on the Week 6 Final IC to be promoted to Module 2. Students who do not will be offered a re-take.

Independent Challenges

• Independent Challenges (ICs)
  • Week 3, Week 4, and Week 5
  • The weekly IC’s are evaluated, but do not count toward promotion. They are practice for the final Week 6 IC.

Student can find independent challenges to practice here.

Professional Development

Promoted students will have attended and actively engaged in all PD sessions. They will present a polished and well thought-out answer to “Tell me about yourself”, something that instruction and feedback will be given on during the live sessions.

Portfolio

Students will complete a Portfolio, and participate in a Portfolio Review. Instructions for the Portfolio can be found here.
