  Case: Group Project
Mr. Phillips has assigned group projects to his science class. He notices that in one particular group one student does most of the work while the other students waste time. He tells the group that they should be sharing the workload. A few minutes after he talks to the students, they go back to the same set-up. How should he grade each student in the group?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
If I had a situation like this during science class, I would give each student in that group a rubric to grade each other by. I would let my students know what is expected of them while they are in groups, and how each member should have a job. Lastly, I would get my students to turn these rubrics in anonymously so they can be better participants in group assignments.
