24. Sample report Teacher Comments: • Student J completed her assignment on the sharemarket for Civics and Citizenship by studying one company in depth and presenting her findings to the class. • She produced information about her allocated company, its logo, its business and share price. She has used PowerPoint in a limited manner to present this information to the class. • She has provided basic information for the assignment, but lacks higher level comprehension and articulation of this knowledge. She is not able to apply her knowledge and analyse or evaluate it in enough detail • I recommend that these skills be further developed through individual tuition and that Student J should work to develop an individual learning plan next year.
