The effectiveness of the presentation of the curriculum unit to the students will be measured in five ways.
Each student’s participation in the many class exercises and discussions.
The quality of the work on the sheet of terms to be defined that will be handed in at the end of the first part of the curriculum.
The results of a quiz about habeas corpus and its origins to be given at the end of the first part of the unit.
The results of a test to be given on the content of the entire unit after the fifth lesson.
The quality of the paper prepared by each student.
There will also be a detailed questionnaire that each student will be asked to fill out and the results will be tabulated. The suggestions from improving the curriculum will be carefully assessed and there will be appropriate changes made if necessary.
SPECIAL NOTE: In the first paragraph of the curriculum the word mechanism is in quotes. There will be special recognition for the student that determines its origin from the original materials the students will read. (The answer is:
Boumediene v. Bush
.)
