Digital Integrated Performance Assessments are available for each unit of each level for Spanish, French, German, Chinese and Italian. IPAs are a great alternative to lesson quizzes and unit tests to allow students to show what they can do with the language.
Each IPA is centered around a theme from the unit and on what students should be able to communicate about at the end of that unit. There is a single Interpretive, Interpersonal and Presentational task, as well as an optional Reflection task. You can assign one or more of the tasks to students. There are also larger IPAs that can be used as semester or year-end assessments with multiple tasks in all modes.
All authentic resources are linked in the IPA task, along with any relevant resource documents. An integration guide and scoring guide with proficiency rubrics are also provided.
You can access your Assignables for your program(s) at any time.
Select your class from the left column or the My Classes page of your screen.
