One of two components for our Cambridge Exam is coursework. This is a portfolio of three pieces of writing in different genres that is worth half of the final score. We just drafted our first piece, and while I cannot speak to the writing, I can say that I'm thrilled with the turn in rate. Of my 94 students, 62 students turned in the coursework. Others have been handing it in slowly or emailing me as they complete the assignment, so that number is continually rising. We just finished handwriting another piece and will spend next Thursday and Friday typing it. The ultimate goal would be to have all 94 students submit two pieces before Fall Break. Keep up the good work!
