So many exciting things happened our project because
the students “took some responsibility for their own learning
and felt free to explore directions that were meaningful to them.
They learned by doing. They made a difference in their own lives
and in their community. None of this could have happened without
communication with people outside the school. This is the potential
that Internet carries--the potential to bring us together and to
help us learn from one another.”

Assessment of student work in online projects is dependent on the goals of student learning. In most projects, written communication is a component that may be included in the overall assessment.
Assessment should include opportunities for:
- students to reflect on their learning and the process in which they
participated - ongoing journals may be useful
- self evaluation and peer evaluation by group members of the project
- multiple formats - written work such as group assignments and journals;
teacher observations; student presentations and products.
