This example fits both Responsible Citizens and Effective Communicators. My student, Evan Ho, has demonstrated these SLOs by taking responsibility into his own hands when it comes to submitting and sharing his work samples with me. Also, he always finds new and innovative ways to demonstrate his knowledge. I love that he is the one to submit his work to me and frequently emails me with updates about his learning.

The student displayed being a responsible citizen by completing a poster that shares ways to save and protect water.
