Hi Michael,

This looks very interesting. Is it possible to set it up so that students have only sufficient points to award 100 points to each team member such that they have to make critical decisions if they wish to award someone more than 100 (someone then needs to receive less than 100).

It wasn't clear to me from the YouTube video that this was possible.

Thanks

Neil

Friends,

Folks may already be aware of this, but this semester I piloted TEAMMATES, an online peer evaluation system run out of the National University of Singapore.

In my opinion, it is superior to CATME in ease-of-use, and I used it to exactly replicate my existing form and process.

Students need not create an account, and you can cut-n-paste a spreadsheet of student names into a web field and it automatically makes correct team associations.

I highly recommend this system. It’s here: http://teammatesv4.appspot.com (with a pretty self-explanatory Video Tour on the front page).
