Receive directions for completing a project.
View an example of a completed project provided by the teacher.
Assess the teacher's example using criteria given by the teacher.
Compare their assessment of the example to the teacher's assessment of the same example.
Submit their completed project.
Assess other students' completed projects, again using the criteria given by the teacher.
Compare their assessment of other students' work to the assessments made by other students and by the teacher.
Receive assessments of the project that they have submitted.
