Goals and Objectives

Goal:
Students will apply a simpler system for world history notebooks.

Objectives:
o   Students will organize notebooks into 3 units per nine week grading period.
o   Students will divide notebooks into 2 sections including notes and handouts.
o   Students will reduce the number of pages per unit through technology including Senteo and mobile phone  texting.
o   Students will repeat notebook training periodically as needed until notebook organization is sufficient.
Assessing and Evaluating:
Since the initial process is a skill that requires students to create a notebook with dividers, the initial procedure could be evaluated through direct testing with observation.
Additionally since this is an ongoing skill that happens over a period of time, performance rating through checklists will also be effective.  Since it is not the quality of actions (score on worksheet, test, etc.) that matters, but the ability to keep up with the papers and organized them into their proper places (sequencing), a checklist will work better than a Likert-type scale.

Google survey, Since my ID is a change in skill, I have created a survey that resembles a checklist.
