01Step one

Preference survey

Students complete a 5-step survey covering work role, style, conflict approach, skills, and availability. Responses are private — only the formation algorithm sees them.

Where the work actually happens

Between signing the agreement and rating each other, groups live in the assignment workspace. They break the project into tasks with owners and dates, log meetings with agendas and minutes, and attach evidence links to work they finish. That log is the point: when peer evaluation opens in step five, everyone is reading a record of who did what instead of arguing from memory.

05Step five

Peer evaluation

Students rate group members against a built-in rubric — with their group context visible alongside the form. Instructors see per-student aggregated scores to inform grading. The contribution log shown below (deadlines, tasks, meetings) is summarised from each group’s real task and meeting activity.
