Beowulf Project
and Scoring Guide
Design and complete a
project that fully reflects your understanding of Beowulf and/or
the Anglo-Saxon society and demonstrates your engagement in higher level
thought (evaluation, synthesis, analysis).
You will be evaluated in
three ways:
1. Typical evaluation of
drafts during the process.
2. Effective use of time
during the process.
3. The final copy as
