The specific verbs to be used for assessment purposes are hard to determine
without practical experience. Similarly the amount of emphasis to place on each
area is not set in stone, although from a practical viewpoint I am fairly confident in
the current emphasis allotment. Many ideas will be further reinforced throughout
the unit, and throughout the students education.

One element that will need to be further integrated is literacy. The subject
matter of the unit, combined with its difficulty does not lend well to a substantial
integration of much literacy related activities beyond nomenclature. Important
elements such as 2 dimensional cross sections of magnetic fields do not lend
themselves well to verbal description. Some areas such as explaining the
relationship between electricity and magnetism involve a small amount of writing,
however the nature of the material requires more emphasis of the higher
understanding centers and less of the writing etiquette skillset.
