Evaluation Framework
The following evaluation framework is embedded in the first and final topics of each unit. Its purpose is to enable you to gather information about the students’ learning.
STUDENTS

Before you begin the topic, ask all of the students who are undertaking the package to write or draw about:
- What do you think graffiti is?
- Where did you see it?
- Who made it?
- How did it make you feel?
- What else do you think about graffiti?
- each answer is numbered correctly.
- you or the students have written their first name to the sheet.
- each student’s work is on a separate piece/s of paper.
- you have scribed students’ explanations if they have drawn their ideas.
- you find a safe place to keep the evaluations until the end of the project.
- What do you think graffiti is?
- Where did you see it?
