Oral Checks and Defenses
The oral checks/defenses are
opportunities for the students to present evidence of progress. They are
conducted on an interim basis between the submission of the proposal and the
final public presentation. Evidence presented during the oral check/defense
should match what was stated on the action plan.
These
checks are meant to ensure that satisfactory completion of the project is
occurring. The students will be expected to defend the work that has taken
place as well as the strategies that have been employed. The teacher/advisor
will determine the frequency of oral checks/defenses for each student.
If a
student is not making adequate progress toward completion of the project, the
parent/guardian and student will receive a formal progress report completed by
the teacher/advisor.
The oral
checks/defenses may include the following:
-
A general explanation of
the project
-
Steps completed so far
-
Evidence of completion
-
Obstacles encountered and
problem solving techniques
-
What the next steps will
be
