B. Summary
Conclude the activity by referring to Flip chart 5 and saying:


“You have now had a chance to use all the steps of the planning cycle to work on your presentation
project. You identified a topic to present. You made a plan with a list of action steps and the people and
resources needed to accomplish them. You spent time actually doing the project and reviewing it along
the way. Lastly, you shared your progress and we were able to thank you and celebrate your efforts.
Some of you found that you could not complete all the action steps right now but you also have a plan
to do them before we meet again.

V. Assessment ( 20 minutes)
Materials:
Flip chart 6: What Have You Learned?


A. How Did We Do?
Participants evaluate their team’s effectiveness in completing their project.



  1. Prepare participants to assess the effectiveness of their team. Post Flip chart 6: What Have You
    Learned? and say:


“I would like you to have a chance to think about how well your team worked together while preparing
your presentation project. Look at the Flip chart ‘What Have You Learned?’ Please take about 10
minutes to talk about these questions with the members of your group, then be prepared to share some
of the important points of your discussion with the whole group.”


  1. Take the questions from Flip chart 6 one at a time and give each team a chance to provide a brief
    response before moving on to the next question.


Note: “How Did We Do?” serves as a partial assessment of Learning Objective 1 and an assessment of Learning Objective 2.

B. Summary
Conclude by saying:


“You’ve had a chance to use the Project Cycle to complete a real project. You used Identifying to decide
what presentation to make for our next session and you figured out how to prepare for your team’s
presentation in the Planning step. You used Doing and Reviewing actions to continue work on your
presentation. And we celebrated your accomplishments so far.

“You also had a chance to talk about how well your group worked together as a team. I’m sure that
those good qualities of teamwork will make your presentation next time a success!”
