Read the two excerpts.

"Remembering to Never Forget: Dominican Republic's 'Parsley Massacre’” by Mark Memmott:

Seventy-five years ago, thousands of Haitians were murdered in the Dominican Republic by a brutal dictator. It was one of the 20th Century's least-remembered acts of genocide.

As many as 20,000 people are thought to have been killed on orders given by Rafael Trujillo. But the "parsley massacre" went mostly unnoticed outside Hispaniola. Even there, many Dominicans never knew about what happened in early October 1937. They were kept in the dark by Trujillo's henchmen.

"A Genetics of Justice” by Julia Alvarez:

During my early teen years in this country, I knew very little about what was actually going on in the Dominican Republic. Whenever Ia situación on the island came up, my parents spoke in hushed voices. In December 1960, four months after our arrival, Time magazine reported the murder of the three Mirabal sisters, who along with their husbands had started the national underground Dominican Republic. My parents confiscated the magazine. To our many questions about what was going on, my mother always had the ready answer, "En boca cerrada no entran moscas." No flies fly into a closed mouth. Later, I found out that this very saying had been scratched on the lintel of the entrance of the SIM's torture center at La Cuarenta.

Which statement best compares how the two authors address this topic?

Memmott writes well after the events occurred, while Alvarez writes while the events are occurring.

Memmott tells about one event that occurred, while Alvarez tells about the dictatorship as a whole.

Memmott gives an anecdote to tell about the dictatorship’s cruelty, while Alvarez tells about her family.

Memmott presents facts about the dictatorship objectively, while Alvarez gives details about how it affected people. < answer

The answer is:

The passages show how people often did not know or understand the extent of Trujillo’s deceit.

In the excerpts from Mark Memmott's "Remembering to Never Forget: Dominican Republic's 'Parsley Massacre'" and Julia Alvarez:'s "A Genetics of Justice," both authors make reference to dictator Trujillo's deviousness, fraud and meanness. Memmot mentions the massacre of 20,000 Haitians, which remained unseen. At the same time, Alvarez reveals how her parents and other exiled Dominicans went back to their country deceived by Trujillo, so that his regime could seize their American dollars.

English 4 ecr/hornos quarter 1 summative assessment
Tems11 [23]

Answer: Assessment allows both instructor and student to monitor progress towards achieving learning objectives, and can be approached in a variety of ways. Formative assessment refers to tools that identify misconceptions, struggles, and learning gaps along the way and assess how to close those gaps. It includes effective tools for helping to shape learning, and can even bolster students’ abilities to take ownership of their learning when they understand that the goal is to improve learning, not apply final marks (Trumbull and Lash, 2013). It can include students assessing themselves, peers, or even the instructor, through writing, quizzes, conversation, and more. In short, formative assessment occurs throughout a class or course, and seeks to improve student achievement of learning objectives through approaches that can support specific student needs (Theal and Franklin, 2010, p. 151).

In contrast, summative assessments evaluate student learning, knowledge, proficiency, or success at the conclusion of an instructional period, like a unit, course, or program. Summative assessments are almost always formally graded and often heavily weighted (though they do not need to be). Summative assessment can be used to great effect in conjunction and alignment with formative assessment, and instructors can consider a variety of ways to combine these approaches.
