PH 712: Rubric for Assessment of Individual Team Member’s Team Working Skills

Background: A major part of this course involves team work and a team project with a final presentation. The team project plays an important role in further developing the
team working skills of the students. The rubric below is used to evaluate each student with respect to his/her ability to function on teams.
Rubric: Each student is evaluated by team members along three dimensions, described below. Each of these dimensions is assigned a score of 1 through 4, with values
representing increasing degrees of achievement in the particular dimension. The last column is the actual points assigned to this particular student, based on his or her actual
performance. The overall total score is assigned by adding together the points corresponding to the three dimensions.
