Team EvaluationsSuggestion for having students evaluate each other’s contributions: Students grade the final project according to the rubric aligned with the learning outcomes.develop an anonymous way or instrument

for team members to grade each other’s contribution (in %) to the project. calculate the overall percentage of each team member’s contribution and multiply it by the final project grade. EX: a group of 4; the percent of contribution allocated to each member must equal 100% in total.

Calculation of grade for Team Member 1

Self-assessment of contribution by Team Member 1
