Assessment criteria

Group and personal performance in the project work, peer assessment & teacher assessment.
Grade 0 - 5

Evaluation is based on the observations of the supervisors made during the project and on the quality of the produced artifact.
First the whole group work is assessed on scale 0 - 5. This assessment considers with equal weights the technical performance and the metaskills of the group. The metaskills include, for example, project coordination, project reporting, following the plan and the progress, group behaviour when problems occur, share of roles and work within the group, internal and external communication and ability to present group work and products. The technical part of the assessment looks at the ability to make decisions between different technologies, mastering design methods and tools, documentation of the design and the product, selecting and mastering the tools and methods, version control, structure and quality of the program code and usability and maintainability of the application. The group evaluation form the basis for the individual assessment.
The individual assessment takes the group assessent as the basis and the individual performance can upgrade or downgrade it. Assessement is based on the peer assessment done between the group members, the role picked up by the student and commitment to take care of the corresponding tasks, activity as a member of the group and personal performance in the group presentation. In individual assessment also all those group assessment criteria are considered where the student individual commitment can be separated and observed.
