We are having a wonderful experience and I am >realizing the great power of these techniques. It is now about time to >get the students ready for a trial peer evaluation for team maintenance. >I found the forms on the Website to facilitate this process and am >getting prepared to distribute them. However, I am concerned with the >enormity of the logistics in getting everyone appropriate feedback from >their team members (there are 106 students in my course and I don't have >a TA). It seems that it is valuable to give the students the feedback >from their team members concerning their helpful and not so helpful >behaviors. Has anyone partially automated this process using WebCT or a >similar computer aided method? Are there any other ways of facilitating >this process? >Thanks >Holly > > >Holly Bender, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVP >Director, Biomedical Informatics Research Group Room 2254 Veterinary >Medicine Department of Veterinary Pathology College of Veterinary >Medicine Iowa State University Ames, Iowa 50011-1250 ph. 515-294-7947 >fax 515-294-5423 [log in to unmask] >http://www.vetmed.iastate.edu/faculty_staff/profiles/hbender.asp >http://www.birg.vetmed.iastate.edu/ * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * L.
