MAILING LISTS

I had similar concerns about individual privacy (although my students 
frequently share their iRAT scores with their team mates).  So for my 
folders I provide the team max/min/average and the class 
max/min/average.  This allows them to see how they are doing in 
relationship to the team and the class.  It's sometimes glaring when a 
student recognizes his/her score as the minimum consistently and then 
sees how it affects the team standing in the class. I heard one student 
apologize to his teammates saying, " I am, the weakest link."

Would anyone who uses these care to comment on how well they work and how/why you use them? I am concerned about student privacy, though it seems they are going to know how well they are each doing when they do the gRAT. And I’m not sure I see the point of listing how many absences there were when it doesn’t say who was absent.
