I just did a group assignment and had to give everyone the same grade. They HAD to work together (they did a trial). But some people did nothing and some people did a lot. I never know what to do! Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) Whenever I have my students work together I always allow them to grade each other. For example, if the students do a presentation they get an overall grade. However, the students will grade their group-mates. The number of points a student gets is added to the presentation grade. If the group received an 85 but student A did all the work and was graded with a total of 5 points then the grade they get in the computer is an 90. If student B did very little work and was graded with a total of 2 points then the grade for them in the computer is an 87. This allowed students to realize team work is important.                 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: This is a helpful solution.
