Case: Pitfall in Group Work
You have created a small group project and have intentionally divided the rubric to include some individual grades, but most of the 100 pts are collaborative. 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 problem that I have encountered as well. I have two possible solutions. First, you could add an element to the rubric that has students grade each other. Students tend to be honest doing this. Second, put your students who do not carry their own weight into their own group. Either some of them will step up to the challenge if they see no one else is doing the work, or they will fail because they have not shown the skills to pass the standard. |
