Homework Due 11/3

 

Please write 1 ˝ to 2 pages examining the results obtained using the training evaluation instrument the class developed.  Consider the following questions:

1.  What were the strengths and weaknesses of the appraisal instrument the class developed?  (5 questions on training, 5 questions on instrument, 1-5 scale)

2.  What were the strengths and weaknesses of the appraisal process you developed? (class members do appraisal on group performance, no peer input, all receive same grade)

3.  Bottom line:  Do you believe the evaluation instrument and process you developed resulted in fair and accurate grades?  Why or why not?

 

Below are the data from the rating sheets you submitted.  I threw out one response, which used a “yes/no” scale rather than the 5-point scale in the instrument.  Using the rest of the ratings, I calculated an average rating for each group, giving equal weight to each question.  I then converted your summary scores from a 5 point scale to the 30 point scale used for group projects.  The resulting overall points were:
