• **Digital Scrapbook-** Students will have a digital scrapbook where they can place work samples that display their understanding. • **Math Labs-** Students will be able to participate in small labs that will allow them to show thier undersatanding in mulitple ways. • **eFolio-** Students will be able to build an online portfolio displaying thier growth in the field of math. • **Comic Life-** Stuents will get a chance to create a comic showing thier knowledge of math. • **Garage Band-** Students will be able to create a song using garage band that displays thier understnading of the subject. || • **Homework-** Students will be assigned homework each class that will give them a chance to check thier own understanding of the material. • **Blogs-** Students will be able to post to their blogs any questions or statments they have regarding the material. || =Assessment Task Blue Print=
 * **Performance Task (Summary in G.R.A.S.P.S. form):** **(T)** ||
 * **Goal:** Collect data from the top three NBA teams from each conference and determine which three teams have the best chance of winning a championship and determine which three pay their players the best.
 * Role:** You are a NBA agent trying to gain new clients through math and presentation skills.
 * Audience:** You will be looking to get LeBron James as your newest client.
 * Situation:** LeBron James has just fired his agent right before his current contract is set to expire. He is looking for a new agent that will give him the information he needs to make his decison on what team to sign with.
 * Product/Presentation:** You will need to create six graphs showing the best three teams in terms of (1) championship potential and (2) payroll so LeBron can make his decesion. You then must incorporate your findings into an iMovie presentation that not only displays your results but also tickles LeBron's fancy.
 * Standards (Criteria from both rubrics - product and presentation):** The oral presentation will be graded on preparedness (20%), comprehension (20%), enthusiasm (10%), attire (10%), content (30%), and staying on topic (10%). The iMovie will be graded on math content (30%), voice consistancy (20%), appeal (20%), purpose (15%), music(5%), and length (10%). ||
 * Other Evidence (quizzes, test, prompts, observations, dialogues, work sample, etc.):**
 * **Other Evidence** **(OE)** ||
 * • **Wikis-** Students will be asked to post answers to assignments on the class wiki site.
 * Student Self-Assessment and Reflection**
 * **Self-Assessment** **(SA)** ||
 * • **Pre-assessment-** Students will take a test at the beginning of the unit that will allow them to see the progress they make over the course of the class.

//**What understandings/goals will be assessed through this task?**// **(G)** D. Algebra ||
 * **Understanding** || **Goal (MLR)** ||
 * • There are basic rules for solving algebraic equations. || • Maine Learning Results: Mathematics

What criteria are implied in the standard(s) understanding(s) regardless of the task specifics? What qualities must student work demonstrate to signify that standards were met?
 * **Big Ideas** || **Big Ideas** ||
 * • Quadratic Equations || • Graphing Equations ||

//**Through what authentic performance task will students demonstrate understandings?**//
 * **Task Description:** **(T)** ||
 * Students will be asked to take the role of an NBA agent. LeBron James has just fired his agent and his contract with his current team is about the expire. He has opened up his search for an agent by asking that anyone interested submit a professional video. This video must include the three best options for him in regards to both (1) salary and (2) ability to win a championship. Your task is to research the top three NBA teams from the western and eastern conferences and present LeBron with your findings. You will create an iMovie showing how you used algebra to determine the three best teams in each catagory. Your presentation must be original because every NBA agent wants LeBron to be thier client. He will choose the presentation and presneter he likes best to become his new agent. This is your chance to land the biggest star in basketball today. Good Luck!!!!! ||
