FeedbackFruits Group Member Evaluation
Purpose
Group Member Evaluation is mainly used for students to assess the contribution or collaboration of their group members, with the option to include self-assessment. It can also be used to evaluate other groups, for example, after group presentations, when the group is assessed as a whole.
The activity does not require any file submission. Teachers are encouraged to provide clear evaluation criteria, which can be set up in a table or list, with or without a numerical scale. The tool can support critical thinking and provide teachers with useful insights into group collaboration.
