Peer Evaluation Process

A peer review process will be used to determine the final grade for each member in the group based on their participation and contribution to the project.

• Each member of the group will provide an evaluation of your group member individually to me
• The evaluation is to be sent to me via the university email, and will be kept in strict confidentiality
• The evaluation will use a score from 0 to 10 - 10 being 100% participation and contribution, and 0 being no participation and contribution
• When evaluating your peer, the items to consider will include the amount of work contributed, quality of completed work, attendance at team meetings, quality of individual participation at meetings, and an individual’s overall contribution
• In a group that has more than 2 members, each individual evaluation score will be averaged in order to determine the final peer evaluation score
• The peer evaluation score will be applied to the project score to determine the individual grade of the project
• For example, if the project mark is 20, and your peer evaluation score is a 10, your final mark for the project will be 20. And if your peer evaluation score is 5, then your project mark will be 10

Project Group

• The project will be done in a group of 3 to 4 members
• You can form your own group but I may assign additional member(s) to your group as I see fit
• Once your group are formed, a group leader need to be selected
• The group leader will be the primary member to communicate between myself and the group
• Other members may communicate with me on specific issue of a group that cannot be brought to the group leader attention
• The group leader will email me the group membership which include all student name, student ID in the group. The group leader will also make his/her name in bold so that I can identify who is the primary contact for the group
• Once I received the membership list via email I will assign a group number to your group and post it on the Course Website
• Deadline for forming your own group and submitting the group membership is this Friday Sep 13, 2019
• After that date, I will assign students that are not in a group, and form the remaining project group
