assessing EFL projects

This is a tough one, but fortunately, it's been done.  In the United States, the Partnership for 21st century skills has a list of elements that should be considered when developping projects

• communication
• critical thinking and problem solving
• creativity and innovation
• collaboration

 Specifically with language learners, projects need to be assessed on:

• communication
• cultures
• connections
• comparisons
• communities

In additon, they focus on interdisciplinary themes such as

• global awareness
• financial, economic, business and entrepreneurial literacy
• civic literacy
• health literacy
• information literacy
• media literacy
• technology literacy
