Click for SELF ASSESSMENT
Click for PEER ASSESSMENT Instructions: There are seven categories that I would like you to use to assess your peers and yourself for the class project. For each item, rate each person and yourself using the 4-point scale given. Please think hard and honestly about each of the categories and how you and each group member performed. It is not necessary that everyone get the highest score on each item. Different people will have different strengths and different contributions. Along with each rating item, I have included a space for comments. Please include examples or explanations that will help me understand your ratings. Please do your evaluations independently – do not share or discuss your scoring or come to a decision based on a group opinion. I want a rating from each of you, based on your perceptions and experiences. How to submit: 1. Complete the SELF ASSESSMENT FORM for YOURSELF and submit. 2. Complete PEER ASSESSMENT FORM for EACH member of your group. For example, if you have 3 additional group members, you will complete 3 SEPARATE forms and submit 3 additional times. Scoring: For each category, award yourself and each member of your team a score using this scale. 4 – Better than most of the group in this respect 3 – About average for the group in this respect 2 – Not as good as most of the group in this respect 1 – No help at all to the group in this respect
