Thanks! We've considered approaches such as these but with a class of 200 students I'm afraid it will be overwhelming and error-prone.

Subject: Re: electronic peer evaluation
I use the quiz tool in Blackboard and that generates a spreadsheet similar to what you'd get with a Google Docs form. However, I still have to do a lot of manipulation to that spreadsheet once I've got all the information. The way I set up the survey in BB is to ask each student to give the name of a teammate, give that teammate's score, and then write a qualitative evaluation so each of those responses is a separate column in the resulting spreadsheet. What creates the headache for me is that students don't enter their teammates in the same order so I have to do a lot of cutting and pasting to gather together all the scores and comments for a given student. Since I have more students than Herb (two classes each with 12-13 teams of 5-6 students), it can be quite time-consuming. Some of the web-based tools look quite useful but I really don't want to make my students create yet another account for an external service so I'd be particularly interested if anyone either has an easier way to use spreadsheets or knows of tools that can be incorporated into an LMS.
