PROJECT GUIDELINE

1st Mid-term test: A project-based test

Timing: During the 10 weeks
Evaluation: Rubric provided (accounting for 15% of
the total scoring)
Students are assigned to work in groups of six. To start,
each group chooses 2 topics of interest or suggested by
the teacher (Topics: Money spending, Leisure
activities, Means of transportation, Traffic jam,
Clothes, Daily life, Education, Entertainment and
media, Environment, Food and drink, Health-medicine
and exercise, House and home, Language, People,
Personal feelings, experiences and opinions, Places and
buildings, Relations with other people, Services,
Shopping, Social interaction, Sports, The natural
world, Transport, Travel and holidays, Weather...).
Each group member is responsible for reading as many
articles as possible from various sources (printed
journals, magazines, newspapers, books, and electronic
tools...) in order to pick up articles on the chosen
topics, synthesize and finally develop them into a
reading portfolio.
- Voted group leaders are in charge of holding
discussions, recording project progress and group
members' participation in detail, and making a final
report to their teacher. The degree of individual
involvement in the task will therefore be marked by the
teacher and group members.
The project package must be submitted by the 10th
session, including:
 A group work schedule (task division, timeline)
 Meeting minutes
 A group work report* (reasons for your grouping
and choosing topics, outcome, efficiency,
achievement, contribution of each member)
 Reading Portfolio
Note: Bản báo cáo (a group work report) sẽ có thông
tin nhóm chấm điểm tham gia của các thành viên và
được sự đồng ý bằng việc ký nhận của các thành viên
trong nhóm. Điểm project là điểm của giáo viên
chấm.
