I've just spent sme time working on a weekend case study with a group of lecturers. this case study is the basis of an MBA group practise. The big problem we have been wrestling with is how to assess the group work.
In fact we came up with a system that is as likely to work as any other. Each member of the group has to do an assessment of the work done in the group, including their own. They have to justify marks, and comment on each member's work under some five headings.
We mark our particular parts of the weekend, and we have a panel interview with each student, discussing their progress and their mark allocation. We think that because they will have to defend their assessments face to face, it will help them work out with some objectivity their own and other people's performance. We will decide just how we combine our impressions and the student marks when we are at the end of this MBA exercise.
