M3 Assessments
M3: Now and Then
- Alignments: 9i, 10l
- Description: Asynchronous discussion board (written or video recorded). Students choose a scenario from the present day that offers information about a student with a disability. After selecting a scenario, students imagine what their student’s experience from the scenario might have looked like if they had lived during a different time by selecting a year/era to place their student in. Then, students write or verbally share a story that demonstrates what one day would look like for this student, demonstrating how the difference in laws, attitudes, and supports in that era might change their educational experience.
