Requisitos del Laboratorio de Lenguaje o Laboratorio Electrónico: (Tell Me More,

Net Tutor, Wimba Voice, Biblioteca Virtual y Voice E-mail.)

Requisitos Mínimos de Laboratorio de Lenguaje: Los estudiantes deben

demostrar que ellos han cumplido con 10 horas de uso en el laboratorio de

lenguaje (inglés y español) por curso. Esto iguala al uso del laboratorio de

lenguaje por dos horas semanales para cada lenguaje por curso. El facilitador

podría requerir más horas de práctica basada en las necesidades para las destrezas

auditivas, orales, de lectura y escritura en cualquiera de los lenguajes

mencionados. El total de horas de práctica en el laboratorio de lenguaje o e-

lab deben de estar integradas en la sección de actividades del módulo.

Descripción de la evaluación

1. Trabajos para realizar previo a cada taller (20%)

Antes de cada taller el/la estudiante deberá completar una variedad de ejercicios

básicos y preguntas guías, asignados para cada taller en este documento, que le

ayudarán en el proceso de comprensión de conceptos que se desarrollarán en la

práctica de las actividades que se efectuarán en el taller. Estas asignaciones se

deben entregar desde el primero hasta el quinto taller. Una penalidad de 25% del

valor de la asignación será descontada por demoras en la entrega de hasta una

semana y 20% por cada semana adicional.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 9

Updated, 03-28-2011

2. Cuatro (4) trabajos cooperativos (20%)

El/la estudiante tendrá la oportunidad de trabajar en grupo con otros estudiantes

matriculados en el curso STAT 202. El facilitador decidirá como formar los

grupos en cada uno de los talleres. Cada grupo trabajará una situación asignada

que resolverá y presentará a la clase. El trabajo realizado se entregará al finalizar

el taller como un documento escrito o en la forma que el facilitador indique.

Habrá cuatro (4) trabajos cooperativos a partir del primer taller. En la quinta

reunión no se realizará esta actividad.

3. Cuatro (4) pruebas para realizar en los talleres (20%)

A partir de la primera reunión y hasta el cuarto taller, una vez discutidas las tareas

realizadas previo a cada taller, el/la estudiante debe estar capacitado para

contestar una prueba corta. La misma constará de una selección de ejercicios

prácticos que fortalecerán las destrezas adquiridas y la comprensión de los

conceptos analizados.

4. Trabajo Final: Estudio de caso y portafolio del curso (20%)

Durante el Taller Cinco, el/la estudiante presentará un estudio de caso de manera

oral y escrita. Este será un trabajo en grupo. Sin embargo, la evaluación

considerará ambas: variables de desempeño individual y grupal. Dependiendo de

la cantidad de estudiantes matriculados en el curso, el facilitador seleccionará

aleatoriamente hasta un máximo de cinco (5) grupos cuya composición no

excederá cinco (5) estudiantes por grupo. En el Primer Taller el facilitador

explicará detalladamente los objetivos del trabajo y dará la oportunidad para que

los estudiantes formen sus equipos y propongan el caso de estudio en que deseen

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 10

Updated, 03-28-2011

trabajar, que será enviado al facilitador antes del Segundo Taller para su

aprobación. Durante el Segundo Taller el facilitador ofrecerá indicaciones

adicionales a los equipos que hayan sometido propuestas, y aprobará o rechazará

las mismas. También formará en equipos a los estudiantes que no hayan enviado

una propuesta y asignará los casos a cada cual. Durante el Tercer y Cuarto Taller

el facilitador supervisará el avance del trabajo de cada equipo. En el Quinto

Taller cada equipo presentará el caso estudiado por cada cual al resto del grupo.

El portafolio debe ser una muestra clara del trabajo realizado durante el curso y

debe incluir todas las asignaciones entregadas, el trabajo realizado en clase, sea en

equipo o individual, las pruebas realizadas y los diarios reflexivos de cada taller.

El facilitador orientará a los estudiantes, desde el primer taller, la forma en que

deberán presentar este portafolio al finalizar el curso. (Ver además el Apéndice F:

Indicaciones para la preparación del portafolio.)

5. Asistencia y Participación (20%)

La asistencia a todos los talleres y la activa participación en los mismos es

necesaria e indispensable. En caso de ausencia, el/la estudiante debe realizar todas

las gestiones necesarias para comunicarse con el facilitador de manera que pueda

prepararse adecuadamente para la próxima reunión. El estudiante que no asista a

un taller perderá también la calificación del trabajo en grupo de ese taller. Bajo

circunstancias especiales el facilitador puede asignar un crédito parcial (no más de

70% y para un taller solamente) para el trabajo en grupo del estudiante ausente si

el estudiante presenta evidencia de un trabajo realizado que sea equivalente al

Descripción de las Normas del Curso

1. Este curso sigue el modelo “Discipline-Based Dual Language Immersion

Model®” del Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez, el mismo está diseñado para

promover el desarrollo de cada estudiante como un profesional bilingüe. Cada

taller será facilitado en inglés y español, utilizando el modelo 50/50. Esto

significa que cada taller deberá ser conducido enteramente en el lenguaje

especificado. Los lenguajes serán alternados en cada taller para asegurar que el

curso se ofrece 50% en inglés y 50% en español. Para mantener un balance, el

módulo debe especificar que se utilizarán ambos idiomas en el quinto taller,

dividiendo el tiempo y las actividades equitativamente entre ambos idiomas. Las

primeras dos horas son estrictamente en español y las últimas dos en inglés.

Los cursos de lenguaje deben ser desarrollados en el idioma correspondiente, en

inglés o en español, según aplique.

2. El curso es conducido en formato acelerado y bilingüe, esto requiere que los

estudiantes sean sumamente organizados, enfocados y que se preparen antes de

cada taller de acuerdo al módulo. El estudiante debe hacer todo esfuerzo para

desarrollar las destrezas en los dos idiomas usando los recursos de lenguaje

disponibles en y fuera de la institución. Convertirse en un profesional bilingüe es

un proceso complejo y retador. Cada taller requiere un promedio de diez (10)

horas de preparación y en ocasiones requiere más para poder tener éxito

lingüístico y académico.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 13

Updated, 03-28-2011

3. La asistencia a todos los talleres es obligatoria. El estudiante que se ausente al

taller deberá presentar una excusa razonable al facilitador. El facilitador evaluará

si la ausencia es justificada y decidirá como el estudiante repondrá el trabajo

perdido, de ser necesario. El facilitador puede elegir una de estas dos alternativas:

(a) permitirle al estudiante reponer el trabajo o (b) asignarle trabajo adicional

además del trabajo que el estudiante tiene que reponer.

Toda tarea a ser completada antes del taller deberá ser entregada en la fecha

asignada. El facilitador ajustará la nota de las tareas repuestas.

4. Si un estudiante se ausenta a más de un taller el facilitador tendrá las

siguientes opciones:

a. Si es a dos talleres, el facilitador reducirá una nota por debajo basado

en la nota existente.

b. Si el estudiante se ausenta a tres talleres, el facilitador reducirá la

nota a dos por debajo de la nota existente.

5. La asistencia y participación en clase de actividades y presentaciones orales es

extremadamente importante pues no se pueden reponer. Si el estudiante provee

una excusa válida y verificable, el facilitador determinará una actividad

equivalente a evaluar que sustituya la misma. Esta actividad deberá incluir el

mismo contenido y componentes del lenguaje como la presentación oral o

actividad a ser repuesta.

6. En actividades grupales, el grupo será evaluado por su trabajo final. Sin embargo,

cada miembro de grupo deberá participar y cooperar para lograr un trabajo de

excelencia. Los estudiantes también recibirán una calificación individual.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 14

Updated, 03-28-2011

7. Se espera que todo trabajo escrito sea de la autoría de cada estudiante y no

plagiado. Se requiere que todo trabajo sometido al facilitador cumpla con las

reglas para citar apropiadamente o que esté parafraseado y citado dando crédito al

autor. Todo estudiante debe ser el autor de su propio trabajo. Todo trabajo que

sea plagiado, copiado o presente trazos del trabajo de otro estudiante o autor será

calificado con cero. El servicio de SafeAssign TM

de Blackboard será utilizado

por los facilitadores para verificar la autoría de los trabajos escritos de los

estudiantes. Es responsabilidad del estudiante el leer la política de plagio de su

universidad. Si usted es estudiante de UT, deberá leer la Sección 11.1 del Manual

del Estudiante. Si es estudiante de UMET y UT, refiérase al Capítulo 13,

secciones 36 y 36.1 de los respectivos manuales.

Se espera un comportamiento ético en todas las actividades del curso. Esto

implica que TODOS los trabajos tienen que ser originales y que para toda

referencia utilizada deberá indicarse la fuente, bien sea mediante citas o

bibliografía utilizando el estilo APA, versión 6. No se tolerará el plagio y, en caso

de que se detecte casos del mismo, el estudiante se expone a recibir cero en el

trabajo y a ser referido al Comité de Disciplina de la institución. Los estudiantes

deben observar aquellas prácticas dirigidas a evitar incurrir en el plagio de

documentos y trabajos pues va en contra de la ética profesional.

8. Para el facilitador poder hacer cambios a las actividades del módulo o guía de

estudio, deberá ser aprobado por el Director de Facultad y Currículo antes de la

primera clase. Es requisito que el facilitador discuta y entregue una copia de los

cambios a los estudiantes al principio del primer taller.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 15

Updated, 03-28-2011

9. El facilitador establecerá los medios para contactar a los estudiantes proveyendo

su correo electrónico de SUAGM, teléfonos, día y horario disponibles.

10. El uso de celulares está prohibido durante las sesiones de clase; de haber una

necesidad, deberá permanecer en vibración o en silencio.

11. La visita de niños y familiares no registrados en el curso no está permitida en el

salón de clases.

12. Todo estudiante está sujeto a las políticas y normas de conducta y

comportamiento que rigen al SUAGM, al curso y a un adulto profesional.

Filosofía y Metodología Educativa

Este curso está basado en la filosofía educativa del Constructivismo. El Constructivismo

es una filosofía de aprendizaje fundamentada en la premisa, de que, reflexionando a

través de nuestras experiencias, podemos construir nuestro propio entendimiento sobre el

mundo en el que vivimos.

Cada uno de nosotros genera nuestras propias “reglas “y “modelos mentales” que

utilizamos para darle sentido a nuestras experiencias. Aprender, por lo tanto, es

simplemente el proceso de ajustar nuestros modelos mentales para poder entender nuevas

experiencias.

Como facilitadores, nuestro enfoque es el mantener una conexión entre los hechos con las

experiencias y fomentar un nuevo entendimiento en los estudiantes. También,

intentamos adaptar nuestras estrategias de enseñanza a las respuestas de nuestros

estudiantes y motivar a los mismos a analizar, interpretar, predecir información y

aplicarla a la vida diaria.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 18

Updated, 03-28-2011

PRINCIPIOS DEL CONSTRUCTIVISMO:

1. El aprendizaje es una búsqueda de significados. Por lo tanto, el aprendizaje debe

comenzar con situaciones en las cuales los estudiantes estén buscando

activamente construir un significado.

2. Para construir “un significado” se requiere comprender todas las partes: globales

y específicas from whole to parts. Ambas partes deben entenderse en el contexto

del todo. Por lo tanto, el proceso de aprendizaje se enfoca en los conceptos

primarios en contexto y no en hechos aislados.

3. Para enseñar bien, debemos entender los modelos mentales que los estudiantes

utilizan para percibir el mundo y las presunciones que ellos hacen para apoyar

dichos modelos.

4. El propósito del aprendizaje, es para un individuo, el construir su propio

significado, no sólo memorizar las contestaciones “correctas” y repetir el

significado de otra persona. Como la educación es intrínsecamente

interdisciplinaria, la única forma válida para asegurar el aprendizaje es hacer del

avalúo parte esencial de dicho proceso, asegurando que el mismo provea a los

estudiantes con la información sobre la calidad de su aprendizaje.

5. La evaluación debe servir como una herramienta de auto-análisis.

6. Proveer herramientas y ambientes que ayuden a los estudiantes a interpretar las

múltiples perspectivas que existen en el mundo.

7. El aprendizaje debe ser controlado internamente y analizado por el estudiante.

E-Lab (Language Lab) Requirements (Tell Me More, Net Tutor, Wimba Voice, Virtual

Library, & Voice E-mail.)

Language Lab Minimum Requirement: Students must demonstrate that they

have complied with 10 hours of language lab or e-lab usage for each language

(English and Spanish) per course. This equates to the use of the language lab or

e-lab for two hours weekly for each language per course. The facilitator may

require a higher number of hours for language lab practice based on the language

needs for listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills in either or both

languages. The total amount of language lab or e-lab hours is integrated in

the activities for each workshop in the module.

Description of the Evaluation Process:

1. Assignments before each workshop. (20%)

Before each workshop each student should do some basic exercises and answer

guiding questions as assigned in this document for each workshop, which will be

useful in the process of understanding the concepts that will be developed during

the class time. These assignments should be turned in from the first to the fifth

workshop. A penalty of 25% of the value of the assignment should be deducted

for delays of up to one week, and 20% for each additional week.

2. Four (4) group tasks. (20%)

Every student will have the opportunity to work in a group with his peers as part

of the STAT 202 course. The facilitator will decide how to form the groups in

each workshop. Each group will work an assigned case that will be presented to

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 23

Updated, 03-28-2011

the entire class. All completed work shall be turned in at the end of the workshop,

either as a written document or using any other procedure indicated by the

facilitator. There will be four (4) group tasks, from the first to the fourth

workshops. This activity will not be done in the fifth workshop.

3. Four (4) tests to be completed in the workshops. (20%)

Beginning with the first workshop through the fourth. Once the assignment has

been discussed and the group task completed, the students should be capable of

answering a short quiz. Each quiz will be made up of practical exercises that will

strengthen the skills introduced and the comprehension of the concepts studied.

4. Final project. Case study and portfolio. (20%)

During Workshop Five the students will present a case study in written and oral

form. Although this project will be prepared in teams, its assessment will consider

both the individual and the group performance. Depending on the number of

students registered in the course, the facilitator will decide the formation of five

(5) teams or less with five (5) or less students assigned to each group.. In

Workshop One, the facilitator will explain the project objectives and will give the

students the opportunity to form their own teams and make a proposal on the case

study that they will be working on. It will have to be submitted before Workshop

Two for approval. During Workshop Two the facilitator will give additional

instructions to those who submitted proposals. Also, the facilitator will form

teams and assign case studies to those students who have not submitted a proposal

prior to Workshop Two. During Workshops Three and Four the facilitator will

supervise how each group is advancing with their project. In Workshop Five each

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 24

Updated, 03-28-2011

team will present their case study to the entire class. (See Appendix O: Rubric to

evaluate the final project.

The portfolio has to be a clear demonstration of the work done during the course

and should include every assignment, the work done in class and the reflective

journals for each workshop. The facilitator will explain to the students, from the

very first workshop, how each portfolio needs to be prepared and ready to be

and is handed in using the present information technology and not as a printed

document.)

5. Attendance and participation. (20%)

Attendance to, and active participation in every workshop is required. In case of

absence the student must as necessary to communicate with the facilitator so that

she/he can prepare for the next workshop. The group work grade for the workshop

to which the student was absent will be lost as well. Due to special

circumstances, the facilitator could assign partial credit for group work (not more

than 70% and for one workshop only) to an absent student provided the student

presents evidence of work done that is equivalent to the work done in class. (See

Appendix C: Rubric to assess attendance and participation in class.)

Description of Course Policies

1. This course follows the Sistema Universitario Ana G. Méndez Discipline-Based

Dual Language Immersion Model® designed to promote each student’s

development as a Dual Language Professional. Workshops will be facilitated in

either English or Spanish, strictly using the 50/50 model. This means that each

workshop will be conducted entirely in the language specified for the workshop.

The language used in each workshop needs to be alternated to insure that 50% of

the course is conducted in English and 50% in Spanish. To maintain this balance,

the course module will indicate that both languages must be used during the fifth

workshop, dividing the workshop activities between the two languages. The first

two hours will be in Spanish and the last two hours in English. The 50/50

model does not apply to language courses where the delivery of instruction must

be conducted in the language taught (Spanish or English only).

2. The course is conducted in an accelerated and dual language format. This requires

that students prepare in advance for each workshop according to the course

module. Students must be structured, organized, committed, and focused to ensure

linguistic and academic success. In order to achieve proficiency expectations in

English and in Spanish, the student must strive to take advantage of all language

resources in the university and in their community since becoming a dual

language professional is a complex and challenging task. Each workshop

requires an average of ten hours of preparation, but could require more.

3. Attendance to all class sessions is mandatory. A student who is absent to a

workshop must present a reasonable excuse to the facilitator who in turn will

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 27

Updated, 03-28-2011

evaluate the reason for the absence. If it is justified, the facilitator will decide how

the student will make up the missing work, if applicable. The facilitator will

decide on the following: allow the student to make up the work, or allow the

student to make up the work and assign extra work to compensate for the missing

class time.

Assignments required prior to the workshop must be completed and turned in on

the assigned date. The facilitator may decide to adjust the grade given for late

assignments and/or make-up work.

4. If a student is absent to more than one workshop, the facilitator will have the

following options:

a. If a student misses two workshops, the facilitator may lower one grade

level based on the student’s existing grade.

b. If the student misses three workshops, the facilitator may lower two

grade levels based on the student’s existing grade.

5. Student attendance and participation in oral presentations and special class

activities are extremely important as it is not possible to assure that they can be

made up. If the student provides a valid and verifiable excuse, the facilitator may

determine a substitute evaluation activity if he/she understands that an equivalent

activity is possible. This activity must include the same content and language

components as the oral presentation or special activity that was missed.

6. In cooperative learning activities, the group will be assessed for their final work

as a group. However, each member will have to collaborate to assure the success

of the group. Students will also receive an individual grade for their work.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 28

Updated, 03-28-2011

7. It is expected that all written work will be solely that of the student and should not

be plagiarized. That is, the student must be the author of all work submitted. All

quoted or paraphrased material must be properly cited, with credit given to its

author or publisher. It should be noted that plagiarized writings are easily

detectable and students should not risk losing credit for material that is clearly not

their own. SafeAssignTM

, a Blackboard plagiarism deterrent service, will be

used by the facilitators to verify students’ ownership of written assignments.

It is the student’s responsibility to read the university’s plagiarism policy. If you

are a UT student, read Section 11.1 of the Student Manual, and if you belong to

UMET or UNE, refer to Chapter 13, Sections 36 and 36.1 of the respective

manuals.

Ethical behavior is expected from the students in all course related activities. This

means that ALL papers submitted by the student must be original work, and that

all references used will be properly cited or mentioned in the bibliography.

Plagiarism will not be tolerated and, in case of detecting an incidence, the student

will obtain a zero in the assignment or activity and could be referred to the

Discipline Committee.

8. In order for the Facilitator to make changes to activities and the study guide, the

Faculty and Curriculum Director must approve such changes before the first day

of class. The Facilitator must discuss the approved changes with students in the

first class workshop. A written copy of the changes must also be provided to

students at the beginning of the first workshop.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 29

Updated, 03-28-2011

9. The facilitator will establish a means of contacting students by providing the

SUAGM e-mail address, phone number, hours to be contacted, and days

available.

10. The use of cellular phones is prohibited during sessions; if there is a need to have

one, it must be on vibrate or silent mode during class session.

11. Children or family members that are not registered in the course are not allowed

to the classrooms.

12. All students are subject to the policies regarding behavior at the university

community established by the institution, and in this course.

Teaching Philosophy and Methodology

The activities for the course reflect the educational philosophy of Constructivism.

Constructivism is an educational philosophy founded on the premise that, by reflecting

on our experiences, we construct our own understanding of the world in which we live.

Each of us generates our own “rules” and “mental models,” which we use to make sense

of our experiences. Learning, therefore, is simply the process of adjusting our mental

models to accommodate new experiences.

One of the main goals facilitators have is assisting students in making connections

between their prior knowledge of facts, and fostering new understanding that is relevant

to real live experiences. We will also attempt to tailor our teaching strategies to student

responses and encourage students to analyze, interpret, and predict information.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 32

Updated, 03-28-2011

CONSTRUCTIVISM GUIDING PRINCIPLES:

1. Learning is a search for meaning. Therefore, learning must start with the issues

around which students are actively trying to construct meaning.

2. Meaning requires understanding “wholes” as well as “parts”. The “parts” must be

understood in the context of “wholes”. Therefore, the learning process focuses on

primary concepts, not isolated facts.

3. In order to teach well, we must understand the mental models that students use to

perceive the world, and the assumptions they make to support those models.

4. The purpose of learning is for an individual to construct his or her own meaning,

not just memorize the "right" answers and regurgitate someone else's meaning.

Since education is inherently interdisciplinary, the only valuable way to measure

learning is to make assessment part of the learning process, thus ensuring that it

provides students with information on the quality of their learning.

5. Evaluation should serve as a self-analysis tool.

6. Provide tools and environments that help learners interpret the multiple

perspectives of the world.

7. Learning should be internally controlled and mediated by the learner.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 33

Updated, 03-28-2011

Integrated Activities:

Facilitator will first conduct routine activities as follows:

1. The facilitator and the students will introduce themselves by engaging in an

icebreaking activity suggested by the facilitator. At the end of this activity a

Student Representative should be selected.

2. The facilitator:

a. Will do a short presentation of the general objectives, the assessment

method and other relevant information about the course.

b. Will inform in writing any change to this module that has been approved.

c. Will also specify the way that assignments should be sent to her/him,

taking into consideration that all the assignments and class work should be

included in a final portfolio.

d. Will provide detailed instructions to the students regarding the contents

and organization of a portfolio (due at the last workshop) which should

include every assignment, class work, and assessment done in class or at

home.

e. Will provide detailed instructions to the students regarding the objectives,

content, and presentation of the case study that will be presented and

discussed at the last workshop. The facilitator will allow the students from

each team to present a proposal on the case study for which they will work

on and submit during Workshop Two for approval.

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 40

Updated, 03-28-2011

f. Will check that each student has sent by e-mail the assignments given as

preparation for this workshop and will remind them about the policy

regarding delays in turning in the assignments.

g. Will do a short review of the topics to be covered in this workshop.

3. Using MS Excel random number generator, or by any other suitable means, the

facilitator will create no less than three teams who will discuss the answers given

by their members to the questions they selected (#2 on the assignment list). Each

team will select three of the questions and will prepare to present them to the

entire group under the guidance of the facilitator.

4. The facilitator will show the videos

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6Lj_8yt4Qk, and

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hP6flJdoIxc or others selected by him, and

will promote its discussion in order to identify their main points.

5. The facilitator will ask for volunteers to show the Power Point presentation

created by her or him (#3 on the assignment list). Using these presentations the

facilitator will clarify any obscure issues and cover the procedures to formulate a

hypothesis using one of the groups as an example. The facilitator will clarify any

question that is raised about the exercises that had to be solved in item four of the

assignment. Then, the students, working in teams organized by the facilitator, will

solve an exercise or two, as indicated by the facilitator (there should be at least

two teams working on the same exercise). After giving the teams some time to

work out the problems, the facilitator will ask one of the teams to present their

solution and the others team that worked on the same exercise will criticize the

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 41

Updated, 03-28-2011

solution presented. The facilitator will clarify/discuss any obscure issues and

answer questions from the students.

6. The students, in teams randomly selected by the facilitator, will work to solve the

word puzzles created by one of their peers. The facilitator will answer questions

and supervise the correct solutions as necessary and clarify the process of creating

the word puzzle for the students that were not successful in doing it by

themselves.

7. The facilitator will provide any pertinent clarification about the assignment to be

completed by the students for the next workshop.

8. The students will complete a short quiz to assess their learning and write their

views in the Reflective Journal (Appendix M: Reflective Journal for Workshops

Actividades Integradas

Antes de comenzar las actividades integradas, el facilitador hará lo siguiente:

a. Revisará que cada estudiante haya enviado su asignación para este taller

b. Pedirá a los equipos que han propuesto algún tema para su trabajo final

que lo expongan al grupo para su aprobación y precisará los requisitos de

los mismos.

c. Asignará un tema de proyecto a los equipos que no hayan hecho

propuestas.

d. Hará un resumen breve del contenido de este taller.

1. El facilitador creará equipos de trabajo para discutir internamente las respuestas

dadas por sus miembros a las preguntas formuladas en el punto 2 de la tarea

previa. Los equipos deben formarse de tal manera que participen estudiantes que

hayan respondido los dos grupos de preguntas, y así, cada equipo podrá discutir

todas las preguntas. Al final el facilitador dirigirá una sesión de todo el grupo que

revisará todas las preguntas, se asegurará que las respuestas discutidas en los

equipos sean correctas, y aclarará los conceptos pertinentes.

2. El facilitador mostrará el video

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cSTgNQ9tU90,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zevwKEO7XSE u otro seleccionado por él y

promoverá la discusión del mismo identificando los aspectos más importantes.

3. El facilitador designará a algún o algunos estudiantes para que presenten el Power

Point creado por ellos en respuesta al punto 3 de la tarea asignada (en lo posible

serán estudiantes que no hayan realizado su presentación en el taller anterior).

STAT 202 Administration Statistics II 48

Updated, 03-28-2011

Aprovechando estas presentaciones el facilitador aclarará cualquier aspecto

confuso para realizar una prueba de hipótesis con un solo grupo.

4. El facilitador aclarará cualquier pregunta que surja en torno a los ejercicios

Writing Rubric

Level of

Proficiency

Criteria

Beginner

(1 – 2 pts.)

Lacks clear writing and focus.. Details are limited or unclear. There’s no clear distinction to what is

important and what is supported.

Lacks engaging and drawing a conclusion. Paper simply starts and ends. Lack of transitions make it

difficult to understand the paper.

Writes with limited use of vocabulary or specific words to transmit meaning of the essay. Misuse of parts

of speech makes it difficult to understand the writing.

Rambles- use of incomplete sentences that are too long to understand. Sentences follow a simple structure

and or style.

Struggles with spelling, punctuation capitalization and other writing conventions. This makes it very

difficult to understand the writing.

Lacks strategic writing skills (e. g., knowledge of the writing process; declarative, procedural and

conditional knowledge; and strategies for inquiry, for drafting [such as investigating genre, considering

audience, and responding to purpose], and for product revision) that are clearly not developed.

Low

Intermediate

(3 – 4 pts.)

Writes sentences that are still unclear there seems to be a guide to a focused topic; however, it may drift at

times. There is an attempt in details to support main idea. Reader can still feel confused.

Attempts to write an introduction and or conclusion. Use of transitions helps, but paper is in need of more

details.

Struggles with some vocabulary terms that are used inappropriately. Greater command of the parts of

speech is developing,.

but many words are still used incorrectly.

Attempts to create a style of sentence structure here and there; although, for the most part it sticks to one

style.

Shows need of improving spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and other writing conventions. It is still

difficult to read the writing; but there are signs of improvement.

Demonstrates emerging strategic writing skills. Intermediate

(5 – 6 pts.)

Writes with an unclear focus. Writing appears to be on one topic, but shifts to another topic at times.

Support of main idea is lacking. Reader is left with unanswered questions.

Attempts to write a proper introduction and conclusion however, both are dull or unclear. Transitions help

connect ideas although at times they distract the flow.

Selects and uses words appropriately; however, they are not higher level and need more vigor.

Formulates well-written sentences; however, style and structure of sentences are repetitious.

Demonstrates control of spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and other writing conventions. However, the

writing could read and sound better by improving conventions.

Utilizes strategic writing skills properly (now evident).

Low

Advanced

(7 – 8 pts.)

Writes with a focus in mind; however, there is room for improvement. Needs more relevant details to

support the main idea.

Some readers’ questions can be answered, while others are left with doubt.

Uses a proper introduction and conclusion, however, some improvement is needed. Needs to continue using

transitional words are properly in order to allow the proper flow of ideas.

Selects and uses vocabulary words that are much more livelier and appropriate. Some common wording

can be improved.

Writes with a definite style, and sentence structure is “catchy” with few mistakes.

Demonstrates good control of spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and other writing conventions. Mistakes

are few and nothing distracts from the writing.

Applies mature strategic writing skills. Source used for language rubrics: WIDA Consortium http://www.wida.us/

6

The writing is exceptionally clear, focused and interesting. It holds the reader’s attention throughout. Main ideas stand out and are developed by strong support and rich details suitable to audience and purpose. The writing is characterized by • clarity, focus, and control. • main idea(s) that stand out. • supporting, relevant, carefully selected details; when appropriate, use of resources provides strong, accurate, credible support • a thorough, balanced, in-depth explanation/ exploration of the topic; the writing makes connections and shares insights. • content and selected details that are well suited to audience and purpose.

The writing is characterized by • clarity, focus, and control. • main idea(s) that stand out. • supporting, relevant, carefully selected details; when appropriate, use of resources provides strong, accurate, credible support. • a thorough, balanced explanation/exploration of the topic; the writing makes connections and shares insights. • content and selected details that are well-suited to audience and purpose.

4

The writing is clear and focused. The reader can easily understand the main ideas. Support is present, although it may be limited or rather general. The writing is characterized by • an easily identifiable purpose. • clear main idea(s) • supporting details that are relevant, but may be overly general or limited in places; when appropriate, resources are used to provide accurate support. • a topic that is explored/explained, although developmental details may occasionally be out of balance with the main idea(s); some connections and insights may be present. • content and selected details that are relevant, but perhaps not consistently well chosen for audience and purpose.

3

The reader can understand the main ideas, although they may be overly broad or simplistic, and the results may not be effective. Supporting detail is often limited, insubstantial, overly general, or occasionally slightly off-topic. The writing is characterized by • an easily identifiable purpose and main idea(s). • predictable or overly-obvious main ideas or plot; conclusions or main points seem to echo observations heard elsewhere. • support that is attempted; but developmental details that are often limited in scope, uneven, somewhat off-topic, predictable, or overly general. • details that may not be well-grounded in credible resources; they may be based on clichés, stereotypes or questionable sources of information. • difficulties when moving from general observations to specifics.

2

Main ideas and purpose are somewhat unclear or development is attempted but minimal. The writing is characterized by • a purpose and main idea(s) that may require extensive inferences by the reader. • minimal development; insufficient details. • irrelevant details that clutter the text. • extensive repetition of detail.

1 The writing lacks a central idea or purpose. The writing is characterized by • ideas that are extremely limited or simply unclear. • attempts at development that are minimal or non-existent; the paper is too short to demonstrate the development of an idea.

Trait #2: Organization

Criteria per Level

6

The organization enhances the central idea(s) and its development. The order and structure are compelling and move the reader through the text easily. The writing is characterized by • effective, perhaps creative, sequencing; the organizational structure fits the topic, and the writing is easy to follow. • a strong, inviting beginning that draws the reader in and a strong satisfying sense of resolution or closure. • smooth, effective transitions among all elements (sentences, paragraphs, and ideas). • details that fit where placed

4

Organization is clear and coherent. Order and structure are present, but may seem formulaic. The writing is characterized by • clear sequencing. • an organization that may be predictable. • a recognizable, developed beginning that may not be particularly inviting; a developed conclusion that may lack subtlety. • a body that is easy to follow with details that fit where placed. • transitions that may be stilted or formulaic. • organization which helps the reader, despite some weaknesses.

3

An attempt has been made to organize the writing; however, the overall structure is inconsistent or skeletal. The writing is characterized by • attempts at sequencing, but the order or the relationship among ideas may occasionally be unclear. • a beginning and an ending which, although present, are either undeveloped or too obvious (e.g. “My topic is...”, “These are all the reasons that…”) • transitions that sometimes work. The same few transitional devices (e.g., coordinating conjunctions, numbering, etc.) may be overused. • a structure that is skeletal or too rigid. • placement of details that may not always be effective. • organization which lapses in some places, but helps the reader in others.

2

The writing lacks a clear organizational structure. An occasional organizational device is discernible; however, the writing is either difficult to follow and the reader has to reread substantial portions, or the piece is simply too short to demonstrate organizational skills. The writing is characterized by • some attempts at sequencing, but the order or the relationship among ideas is frequently unclear. • a missing or extremely undeveloped beginning, body, and/or ending. • a lack of transitions, or when present, ineffective or overused. • a lack of an effective organizational structure. • details that seem to be randomly placed, leaving the reader frequently confused.

1

The writing lacks coherence; organization seems haphazard and disjointed. Even after rereading, the reader remains confused. The writing is characterized by • a lack of effective sequencing. • a failure to provide an identifiable beginning, body and/or ending. • a lack of transitions. • pacing that is consistently awkward; the reader feels either mired down in trivia or rushed along too rapidly. • a lack of organization which ultimately obscures or distorts the main point.

Trait #3: Voice

Criteria per Level

6

The writer has chosen a voice appropriate for the topic, purpose and audience. The writer seems deeply committed to the topic, and there is an exceptional sense of “writing to be read.” The writing is expressive, engaging, or sincere. The writing is characterized by • an effective level of closeness to or distance from the audience (e.g., a narrative should have a strong personal voice, while an expository piece may require extensive use of outside resources and a more academic voice; nevertheless, both should be engaging, lively, or interesting. Technical writing may require greater distance.). • an exceptionally strong sense of audience; the writer seems to be aware of the reader and of how to communicate the message most effectively. The reader may discern the writer behind the words and feel a sense of interaction. • a sense that the topic has come to life; when appropriate, the writing may show originality, liveliness, honesty, conviction, excitement, humor, or suspense.

4

A voice is present. The writer demonstrates commitment to the topic, and there may be a sense of “writing to be read.” In places, the writing is expressive, engaging, or sincere. The writing is characterized by • a questionable or inconsistent level of closeness to or distance from the audience. • a sense of audience; the writer seems to be aware of the reader but has not consistently employed an appropriate voice. The reader may glimpse the writer behind the words and feel a sense of interaction in places. • liveliness, sincerity, or humor when appropriate; however, at times the writing may be either inappropriately casual or personal, or inappropriately formal and stiff.

3

The writer’s commitment to the topic seems inconsistent. A sense of the writer may emerge at times; however, the voice is either inappropriately personal or inappropriately impersonal. The writing is characterized by • a limited sense of audience; the writer’s awareness of the reader is unclear. • an occasional sense of the writer behind the words; however, the voice may shift or disappear a line or two later and the writing become somewhat mechanical. • a limited ability to shift to a more objective voice when necessary.

2

The writing provides little sense of involvement or commitment. There is no evidence that the writer has chosen a suitable voice. The writing is characterized by • little engagement of the writer; the writing tends to be largely flat, lifeless, stiff, or mechanical. • a voice that is likely to be overly informal and personal. • a lack of audience awareness; there is little sense of "writing to be read." • little or no hint of the writer behind the words. There is rarely a sense of interaction between reader and writer.

Trait #4: Word Choice

Criteria per Level

6

Words convey the intended message in an exceptionally interesting, precise, and natural way appropriate to audience and purpose. The writer employs a rich, broad range of words, which have been carefully chosen and thoughtfully placed for impact. The writing is characterized by • accurate, strong, specific words; powerful words energize the writing. • fresh, original expression; slang, if used, seems purposeful and is effective. • vocabulary that is striking and varied, but that is natural and not overdone. • ordinary words used in an unusual way. • words that evoke strong images; figurative language may be used.

5

Words convey the intended message in an interesting, precise, and natural way appropriate to audience and purpose. The writer employs a broad range of words which have been carefully chosen and thoughtfully placed for impact. The writing is characterized by • accurate, specific words; word choices energize the writing. • fresh, vivid expression; slang, if used, seems purposeful and is effective. • vocabulary that may be striking and varied, but that is natural and not overdone. • ordinary words used in an unusual way. • words that evoke clear images; figurative language may be used

4

Words effectively convey the intended message. The writer employs a variety of words that are functional and appropriate to audience and purpose. The writing is characterized by • words that work but do not particularly energize the writing. • expression that is functional; however, slang, if used, does not seem purposeful and is not particularly effective. • attempts at colorful language that may occasionally seem overdone. • occasional overuse of technical language or jargon. • rare experiments with language; however, the writing may have some fine moments and generally avoids clichés.

3

Language is quite ordinary, lacking interest, precision and variety, or may be inappropriate to audience and purpose in places. The writer does not employ a variety of words, producing a sort of “generic” paper filled with familiar words and phrases. The writing is characterized by • words that work, but that rarely capture the reader’s interest. • expression that seems mundane and general; slang, if used, does not seem purposeful and is not effective. • attempts at colorful language that seem overdone or forced. • words that are accurate for the most part, although misused words may occasionally appear, technical language or jargon may be overused or inappropriately used. • reliance on clichés and overused expressions.

2

Language is monotonous and/or misused, detracting from the meaning and impact. The writing is characterized by • words that are colorless, flat or imprecise. • monotonous repetition or overwhelming reliance on worn expressions that repeatedly distract from the message. • images that are fuzzy or absent altogether.

1

The writing shows an extremely limited vocabulary or is so filled with misuses of words that the meaning is obscured. Only the most general kind of message is communicated because of vague or imprecise language. The writing is characterized by • general, vague words that fail to communicate. • an extremely limited range of words. • words that simply do not fit the text; they seem imprecise, inadequate, or just plain wrong.

Trait #5: Sentence Fluency

Criteria per Level

6

The writing has an effective flow and rhythm. Sentences show a high degree of craftsmanship, with consistently strong and varied structure that makes expressive oral reading easy and enjoyable. The writing is characterized by • a natural, fluent sound; it glides along with one sentence flowing effortlessly into the next. • extensive variation in sentence structure, length, and beginnings that add interest to the text. • sentence structure that enhances meaning by drawing attention to key ideas or reinforcing relationships among ideas. • varied sentence patterns that create an effective combination of power and grace. • strong control over sentence structure; fragments, if used at all, work well. • stylistic control; dialogue, if used, sounds natural.

5

The writing is characterized by • a natural, fluent sound; it glides along with one sentence flowing into the next. • variation in sentence structure, length, and beginnings that add interest to the text. • sentence structure that enhances meaning. • control over sentence structure; fragments, if used at all, work well. • stylistic control; dialogue, if used sounds natural.

4

The writing flows; however, connections between phrases or sentences may be less than fluid. Sentence patterns are somewhat varied, contributing to ease in oral reading. The writing is characterized by • a natural sound; the reader can move easily through the piece, although it may lack a certain rhythm and grace. • some repeated patterns of sentence structure, length, and beginnings that may detract somewhat from overall impact. • strong control over simple sentence structures, but variable control over more complex sentences; fragments, if present, are usually effective. • occasional lapses in stylistic control; dialogue, if used, sounds natural for the most part, but may at times sound stilted or unnatural.

3

The writing tends to be mechanical rather than fluid. Occasional awkward constructions may force the reader to slow down or reread. The writing is characterized by • some passages that invite fluid oral reading; however, others do not. • some variety in sentences structure, length, and beginnings, although the writer falls into repetitive sentence patterns. • good control over simple sentence structures, but little control over more complex sentences; fragments, if present, may not be effective. • sentences which, although functional, lack energy. • lapses in stylistic control; dialogue, if used, may sound stilted or unnatural.

2

The writing tends to be either choppy or rambling. Awkward constructions often force the reader to slow down or reread. The writing is characterized by • significant portions of the text that are difficult to follow or read aloud. • sentence patterns that are monotonous (e.g., subject-verb or subject-verb-object). • a significant number of awkward, choppy, or rambling constructions.

1

The writing is difficult to follow or to read aloud. Sentences tend to be incomplete, rambling, or very awkward. The writing is characterized by • text that does not invite—and may not even permit—smooth oral reading. • confusing word order that is often jarring and irregular. • sentence structure that frequently obscures meaning. • sentences that are disjointed, confusing, or rambling.

Trait #6: Conventions

Criteria per Level

6

The writing demonstrates exceptionally strong control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage) and uses them effectively to enhance communication. Errors are so few and so minor that the reader can easily skim right over them unless specifically searching for them. The writing is characterized by • strong control of conventions; manipulation of conventions may occur for stylistic effect. • strong, effective use of punctuation that guides the reader through the text. • correct spelling, even of more difficult words. • paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct grammar and usage that contribute to clarity and style. • skill in using a wide range of conventions in a sufficiently long and complex piece. • little or no need for editing.

5

The writing demonstrates strong control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage) and uses them effectively to enhance communication. Errors are so few and so minor that they do not impede readability. The writing is characterized by • strong control of conventions. • effective use of punctuation that guides the reader through the text. • correct spelling, even of more difficult words. • paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct capitalization; errors, if any, are minor. • correct grammar and usage that contribute to clarity and style. • skill in using a wide range of conventions in a sufficiently long and complex piece. • little need for editing.

4

The writing demonstrates control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage). Minor errors, while perhaps noticeable, do not impede readability. The writing is characterized by • control over conventions used, although a wide range is not demonstrated. • correct end-of-sentence punctuation, internal punctuation may sometimes be incorrect. • spelling that is usually correct, especially on common words. • basically sound paragraph breaks that reinforce the organizational structure. • correct capitalization; errors, if any, are minor. • occasional lapses in correct grammar and usage; problems are not severe enough to distort meaning or confuse the reader. • moderate need for editing.

3

The writing demonstrates limited control of standard writing conventions (e.g., punctuation, spelling, capitalization, paragraph breaks, grammar and usage). Errors begin to impede readability. The writing is characterized by • some control over basic conventions; the text may be too simple to reveal mastery. • end-of-sentence punctuation that is usually correct; however, internal punctuation contains frequent errors. • spelling errors that distract the reader; misspelling of common words occurs. • paragraphs that sometimes run together or begin at ineffective places. • capitalization errors. • errors in grammar and usage that do not block meaning but do distract the reader. • significant need for editing.

2

The writing demonstrates little control of standard writing conventions. Frequent, significant errors impede readability. The writing is characterized by • little control over basic conventions. • many end-of-sentence punctuation errors; internal punctuation contains frequent errors. • spelling errors that frequently distract the reader; misspelling of common words often occurs. • paragraphs that often run together or begin in ineffective places. • capitalization that is inconsistent or often incorrect. • errors in grammar and usage that interfere with readability and meaning. • substantial need for editing.

1

Numerous errors in usage, spelling, capitalization, and punctuation repeatedly distract the reader and make the text difficult to read. In fact, the severity and frequency of errors are so overwhelming that the reader finds it difficult to focus on the message and must reread for meaning. The writing is characterized by • very limited skill in using conventions. • basic punctuation (including end-of-sentence punctuation) that tends to be omitted, haphazard, or incorrect. • frequent spelling errors that significantly impair readability. • paragraph breaks that may be highly irregular or so frequent (every sentence) that they bear no relation to the organization of the text. • capitalization that appears to be random. • a need for extensive editing.
