Dear colleague,

You might like to check the resources on the TBLC website, where there are details for different approaches for calculating peer evaluation scores: (http://tblc.roundtablelive.org/page-1032389 )

My university has a licence for SparkPlus that I have used for 3 years for providing team contribution feedback. I find that this is robust, straightforward to use, and gives me metrics that I use to weight individual marks for team project work.( http://sparkplus.com.au/factors/)

There are sessions at the coming annual conference in March that address this question – perhaps we can catch up then! (http://www.cvent.com/events/14th-annual-tblc-conference/agenda-d9be28c7e4b44f77b727496a6ec412d7.aspx)

All the best for the New Year!

Happy New Year!

 

I hope your holiday festivities were enjoyable!

 

I have been looking at the resources available for peer evaluation. I am looking for something which allows students to ‘rate’ how much each student contributed to a group project. I am sure I can use what is out there and modify it, but I wanted to see if anyone has anything specific for this purpose.

 

For example, say a group gets a 95% on a group project.

 

Is there a form/method that each student can go though and let me know if there was any ‘social loafing’ going on?

 

Thus, when the forms are all said and done I would get something like this:

 

Student 1: 100%

Student 2: 100%

Student 3: 90%

Student 4: 85%

Student 5: 50%

 

Thereby, students 1&2 would get the full 95% on the project and the 5th student would get a 47.5%.

 

I really feel I know one of these type things exists, but I cannot find any online.

 

Many thanks for your help and talk soon,

 

Scott
