Testing Constraints

For the Power Point/Oral presentation I would put a 5 minute minimum and a 8 minute maximum. That way the students will know where they stand for information so that there is not the issue of too little or too much.

Holistic Rubric

I would ask students questions on what events a few of the women mentioned were involved in and what direct outcomes came from these events.

Assessment Context
