You know that a student has not been pulling their own weight in a group and you also wrestle with the fact that by not doing the work he/she has not proven mastery of the skills you were assessing, yet will still earn a passing grade. How do you address this? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) This is a good one. One of the teachers that I teach with created a rubric titled "fair-share." Each student in the group gets one and every student in a group grades everyone of their partners. It's a fabulous way to measure student involvement. It highlights their contribution and makes them aware of what they are/aren't doing. Students are more than fair when they grade their teammates.                 Rating The suggested solution is respectful of the individual (student) Yes The suggested solution is relevant to the case Yes The suggested solution is reasonable (easy) for the teacher to implement Yes The suggested solution is likely to solve the problem/issue Yes The suggested solution is original Yes Comments: I think this is a good and well thought out solution.
