Activity 5: Taskstream/Homework Time

Now that you have completed modules 1-7, you are ready to attempt Performance Task 1 in Taskstream (also known as 102.4.5-06). Go to www.taskstream.com to get started on Task 1.

Additional Clarification

In constructing a story problem for students, it is essential to include layover times for flights.
The steps you expect student to follow should be very detailed.
This task requires students to create a rubric/scoring key that includes each answer range. The individual answer ranges should each be assigned a specific point value.
- You need to decide how many points the problem is worth, and then how you would award partial credit. For example, if you had 10,000 students, you couldn’t possibly correct this problem by yourself. Tell others how they should award partial credit, so that all students are graded fairly.
- This site is for teachers and it has sample rubrics/scoring keys and you can create your own. http://rubistar.4teachers.org/index.php. Please note that you need the rubric to account for all parts of the questions, and only the questions that you have in the problem.
- Also be sure to pay attention to the different speeds listed in the Taskstream directions, and be sure to follow the route specified. (Not all Web sites offer the correct route, so pay particular attention to this).

If you encountered difficulty with any of the concepts or problems, you should go to the community. There you will be able to contact the Interdiscplinary Studies Math (IS Math) Academic Mentor through the "Contact a Mentor" button, or e-mail.
