Objective: I will assign a score to each group project and then adjust each member's individual score by his or her evaluations received from peers. These evaluations provide you with protection against team members who wish to receive a good grade without doing the work.
[Note: WHEN YOU ARE A MEMBER OF A GROUP, PLEASE PRACTICE SMALL GROUP CO-OPERATIVE MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP TECHNIQUES. SEE MY SEPARATE HANDOUTS.]
Procedure: You are to distribute 100 points among yourself and the other members of your group for each of the two questions below. If, say, there are four members in your group and all made equal contributions, then each member, including yourself, would receive 25 points on each question. If, however, three members did most of the work and the fourth person malingered, your point assignment might be 27 points to each of the three workers and only 19 points to the malingerer. (Note: Each team member must submit a PE form. I will assume equal point assignments among all team members if an individual fails to submit a form.)
Print or clearly write names of all group members in the spaces provided.
How would you characterize the amount of time and effort each group member spent on the project?
Member # 1 (yourself) points
Member # 2 points
Member # 3 points
Member # 4 points
Total Points = 100
How would you characterize the overall contribution of each group member in connection with the project?
Member # 1 (yourself) points
Member # 2 points
Member # 3 points
Member # 4 points
Total Points = 100
Note: With thanks to Prof. Michael Luthy who
devised this form and Dr. Terence Shimp.
