Evaluation

Portfolio Deutsch Neu 1-3/4 is a great resource for Learning. These materials cover Level 1-Level 4. aligning with the Utah state levels Novice High through Advanced low. This might be problematic for some German 1 learners, as most German 1 classes have end-on-level expectations set to Novice Mid. This Level 1 resource may, therefore be on the more demanding side, which may be difficult for some teachers who are used to lower end-of-level expectations. This resource is very well organized and has both textbooks and workbooks that allow for and can be used for assessments, both formative and summative. There is plenty of supplemental media; audio and video to support tier 1 instruction as well as remediation and extension. Though not necessarily customizable it is adaptable for various skill levels. This resource is not very diverse as far as ethnicity. Most imagery depicts Caucasians and shows diversity mostly when discussing immigration and other topics that would specifically be about diverse ethnic backgrounds. Although this resource does align with the state standards, it aligns with the broader standard topics and not with specific standards. Teachers would have to work through the curriculum and the standards to align specific standards, for proficiency assessments. Overall this is a good resource, but still requires a fair amount of work from teachers to make it the most effective.

The material should incorporate a curriculum of people and cultures that reflect the state’s various demographics without commentary that seeks to violate the neutrality standard established in codes: 53B-1-118, 53G-2-103, 53G-2-104, 53G-2-105, 67-27-107, This item has not been graded.
