Assignment

Overview

As the final step in the collaborative project, each team member will submit a confidential 1-2 page memo that summarizes their own contributions to the Feasibility Report Assignment, the collaborative methods of the group, and a thorough appraisal of the work of the group and of each of the group members (including themselves). You must be honest, but the language of such a sensitive document is crucial. Since you will be evaluating your colleagues as well as yourself, strive to convey accurate and thorough information while maintaining sensitivity of expression. (Note: I will maintain the complete confidentiality of these memos.)

Your memo should include the following five (5) parts:

I. Summary: Summarize the process by which your group worked. What tasks did your report require? How did you divide the responsibilities to accomplish these tasks? By what methods did you coordinate your efforts? How did you collaboratively write and produce the final report and plan for the final presentation?

II. Analysis: Analyze the group's collaborative methods. Which methods allowed your group to work most productively? What obstacles did you encounter? How might you have improved your collaboration?

III. Evaluation: Describe the overall effectiveness of your group's collaboration, and evaluate the group as a whole. Did your group develop ways of collaborating effectively? Why or why not? What would you change to improve the collaborative process?

IV. Appraisal: Carefully evaluate the contributions of yourself and the other members. How would you evaluate each individual's performance as a member of this group? What would you improve? How would you improve it?

V. Conclusions: Your conclusions regarding what you learned about collaborative writing.
