• E.g. Group of Three Students
• Each student gets the same grade
based on the overall submission of the
group assignment
• Advantages
• Grade reflects overall result
• Easy to correct
• Disadvantages
• Does not reflect individual contribution
• Does not reflect interaction
• Does not reflect ability to resolve interaction
issues

student – assessed by Lecturer

Example
• Group of Three Students
• Grade Distribution – 100% Group Assignment
• 40% Overall Final Submission
• 30% Individual Contribution based on agreed
expectations
• 30% Peer Review of Group Members
• The group identified and documents roles,
responsibilities, actions, deadlines amongst
themselves.
• All Three Students get the same percentage for
the overall result- e.g. awarded 30% (out of 40%)
• Student 1 – Good Individual Section & Good
Participation
• Student 2 – Poor Individual Section & Poor
Participation
• Student 1 – Excellent Individual Section &
Excellent Participation

• Focus on striving for the success as a group rather than trying to highlight issues with the
other group members
• Success is achieved
• Agree the overall strategy to answer the assignment
• Agree the sections/actions that are required to research, assess, analyse, present and collate the assessment
• Agree which individuals will do these actions
• Document these actions
• Work as a team / Collaborate
• Be open and honest – It is ok to challenge / agree / disagree
• Use technology / skype / dropbox / tools to share information
