Products may be projects, creative writing, reports, exhibits, portfolios or videos.
Products are usually long-term assignments for students.
Each requires students to collect and organize information as well as communicate that information to a specific audience. A product may be the culminating activity for a unit. As an instructional tool, a product can help a student increase his or her understanding of a topic or ability to use skills. It can provide a teacher with evidence that a student can apply particular skills or knowledge. Because students are often given some choice in the topic or form of a product, they give students the opportunity to build on their strengths, show individuality or exhibit creativity.
