Lesson details

Key learning points

  1. Blog content should be designed and created using success criteria.
  2. Self-evaluation is used to evaluate content

Keywords

  • Subjective - something that is influenced by individual feelings, tastes, or opinions

  • Self-evaluation - assessing your own work, judging how well you did

Common misconception

Success criteria are only for the teacher to use when marking work. They don't help me.

They're not just for marking. Think of them like a checklist or a guide to help you create your best work. They tell you exactly what you need to do to succeed.
