ASSESSMENT

Depending on the skill and grade levels of your students, hyperfiction evaluation should be flexible, especially at first. Assessment should focus on

• Content: Is the story interesting? substantive? on the assigned topic (if applicable)?
• Hyperlinks: Does the reader have several choices on each page? Do the hyperlinks work?
• Logic: Do the choices make sense? Is there a link to return the reader to the main page?
• Creativity: Does the author approach the topic in a way that is engaging, unique, and interesting?

Because of the unusual nature of hyperfiction, rubrics can be the best way to assess them. Try Rubistar for a rubric that's easy to use and modify.
