Hello everyone:
I am going to be doing my first graded team assignment on
Friday and allowed the students to develop their own criteria for being graded
while in class yesterday, which they thoroughly enjoyed. While the practice
activities have been fun and the students have produced terrific results, I am
wondering if there are any tips you could provide to make this experience as
smooth as possible. For example, my plans were to casually observe as they
work as a portion of the grading process, but I am completely open to more
effective methods that are available. Also, I am wondering logistically if I
need to provide a “grade sheet” with their performance on the
criteria individually since it is a team grade in their syllabus?
Thank you in advance.
