Peer Evaluation Criteria

At the end of each of the group projects, you will be required to complete and submit a peer evaluation for each of your group members (see the course schedule for dates to submit the peer evaluations). The purpose of the peer evaluation is to evaluate each of your group members on her/his performance as a group member in completing group assignments. The peer evaluation is completed once after each group project. Failure to complete peer evaluations will result in the loss of a quarter point from the five possible points for your TA evaluation for that group project.

In the peer evaluation, you will be asked to rate individual group members on each of the following five statements:

• This group member actively participated in group assignments.
• This group member accomplished tasks on time.
• This group member's work reflected an acceptable level of thought and effort.
• This group member functioned as a valuable member of the group by supporting the efforts of fellow group members.
• This group member would make an excellent project manager for this group.

You will evaluate group members using the following five-point Likert scale:

• Strongly Agree = 5
• Agree = 4
• Neither Agree nor Disagree = 3
• Disagree = 2
• Strongly Disagree = 1
• Not Applicable = 0

In addition to the five statements, the peer evaluation has an open-ended question in which you can write specific comments on the performance of each of your group members.
