grades

Please let me know if I accidentally missed one of your assignments.  Please check online.  You can email me if there is a problem. I cannot put in a grade if there is no name.

I am missing a lot of Dance 3 assignments.
-I have an "un-named" blue folder with journal papers (with skateboard drawings on first page)
-There was also a red spiral notebook left in the dance room with no name

Grades will be posted and cut off Sunday evening.

Video Personal Assessments / End of Unit Testing

Update: I "think" everything "should" be up now.  Names are in for your online self-assessment and videos are up and password protected on vimeo.  You can get to the video links through the password protected utips class folder called "Tests and Videos".  Social Dance, there are 2 videos that are still in the process of getting uploaded to the site, but the link is right.  Email me if there is a problem with something.

Social Dance (Foxtrot)
Dance 3 (Body)

There are 3 different graded Assignment for the end of your unit testing:
#1  Online Video Personal Assessment (grade yourself)
#2  Written Unit Test
#3  Practical Skills/Technique Test

For your online Video personal assessment you will need to:
Watch your video:
-go to our dance utips website (http://www.ucutips.org/~dance/)
-find your class folder on the left
-go to "Tests and Videos"
-put in your class password and watch your videos (you may have to put in your class password more than once bc of privacy settings)

After watching your video:
-go back into your class folder "Tests and Videos"
-click on Online Video Self-Assessment
-find your name to log in, or print off assessment
-fill out (you will get full points for being honest and doing it, not the score you give yourself)
-click "submit" at the top left when done.

I will be able to see the time and date you have submitted it.  Please make sure it is done BEFORE your skills test.
