Language objectives (TESOL Standard 1)
|
Language objectives may be unclear or written too generally (e.g., SWBAT speak about X, SWBAT to write about X); lack of specificity makes the objective more difficult to develop instructional activities or tasks for
|
Language objectives are included but may need revision to ensure clarity and relevancy to the described instructional material; objectives may be difficult to properly plan instruction for and/or assess
|
At least three clear and assessable language objectives are included; objectives address more than one language skill; annotations are included, and most are accurate; the objectives are relevant to described instructional material and included assessments
|
Language objectives have been clearly written and annotated accurately; objectives cover a range of language skills; objectives are specific in terms of language skills and could serve as model objectives for other teachers
|
Number of Activities or Tasks (TESOL Standard 3)
|
Either there are not enough activities or tasks, they are not enough original activities, or they fail to address the lesson objectives
|
The minimum number of activities or tasks has been met but they may not adequately address the lesson objectives
|
There are at least three original activities or tasks, OR at least two pre-existing and two original activities; these three or four activities or tasks adequately address the lesson objectives
|
The minimum number of activities and tasks is exceeded and the developed and/or modified activities and tasks completely address the range of content and language objectives
|
Instructional outline of activities or tasks (TESOL Standard 3)
|
Details about instruction are either too general or vague; the reviewer has trouble understanding how instruction is related to objectives
|
A general outline is provided but it may not be completely clear how instruction will address the language objectives; annotations may be missing, minimal, or not properly used
|
Outline includes sufficient details on the instruction (may be unclear at times); instruction addresses most of the language objectives; annotations are included (but several may be inaccurate)
|
