Cultural connection · I PAC
Event of this week: Easter · White House Easter Egg Roll (Sunday, March 28). See it in your I PAC Cultural Passport.
Your cultural mission: Compare Easter in the U.S. and Semana Santa in Honduras: «Semana Santa is longer than…».
Mirror Honduras: Compare Easter in the U.S. with Semana Santa in Honduras (for example, the sawdust carpets of Comayagua).
Include one comparison between the U.S. and Honduras: one similarity and one difference.
Be respectful: say «In my experience…» or «In my city…», not «All Americans…» or «All Hondurans…». Need ideas? Ask SofIA Cultural.

Rubric · 20 points = 5%
Language counts double. Your teacher uses this rubric on the UNAH Virtual Campus.
| Criterion | 4 · Excellent | 3 · Good | 2 · Developing | 1 · Beginning |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Language 8 pts | 8 pts Uses the language of the lesson (Comparatives) and its vocabulary correctly; 1–2 minutes; clear pronunciation and natural pace. | 6 pts Few errors that do not stop communication; the length is almost complete. | 4 pts Several errors; part of the message is not clear, or the product is short. | 2 pts Many errors; the lesson's language is not used, or most is in Spanish. |
| Process and use of AI 4 pts | 4 pts Draft and script + SofIA prompt and chat link (if AI was used); the YouTube link (Unlisted) opens and the script is attached; the final product is clearly your own (AI level 1). | 3 pts Evidence or format partly incomplete. | 2 pts Little evidence of your own process, or a link does not open. | 1 pt No evidence, or the AI produced the work. |
| Career and culture 4 pts | 4 pts Includes an element of your career and a respectful comparison between the course country and Honduras. | 3 pts Includes your career or the comparison, not both. | 2 pts General content; weak link with career or culture. | 1 pt Not related to your career or to culture. |
| Autonomy and originality 4 pts | 4 pts Reuses and improves Act. 22, Act. 26, Act. 30; original and personal; complete Source card. | 3 pts Original, but reuse or Source card is partial. | 2 pts Very close to the model; no Source card. | 1 pt Copied or not personal. |
| Total | 20 points = 5% of your final grade (Activity 34). 0 points if not submitted. | |||
How your points become your grade: 20/20 pts = 5% · 15/20 pts = 3.75% · 10/20 pts = 2.5% · 5/20 pts = 1.25%.
Competency reached: 13/20 points (65/100) or more. Competency-based grading scale
Your result, two ways
Your teacher decides which one the course uses. Pass mark: 65 %.
1 · Percentage (summative)
your rubric points × 5 (20 points = 100) × the weight of the activity.
Example: 70 % in this activity (5 %) = 3.5 % of your final grade.
2 · Competency level
- 0–39 N1 · not reached
- 40–54 N2 · partly reached
- 55–64 N3 · almost reached
- 65–79 N4 · competency reached
- 80–89 N5 · reached with distinction
- 90–94 N6 · excellence
- 95–100 N7 · outstanding
Doble calificación: porcentaje sumativo (nota × peso) o nivel de competencia (aprobación con 65). El docente decide cuál usar. Escala completa

Academic integrity and AI
Your work must be yours. Follow LÍDER: 1 try first on your own · 2 ask SofIA for hints · 3 verify · 4 produce your own version · 5 be ready to explain it without AI. When the assignment allows AI, submit your prompt and the chat link as evidence of your process.

Key words
- older más antiguo
