The presentation and paper grade will apply to each member of the team. Participation within the team will be graded by the team members. A team evaluation form is attached. A negative evaluation from your team members, or failing to turn in the form at the end of the semester , will negatively affect your final grade. You can lose up to five points from your final course grade.
Teams can hire and fire members.
Anyone fired by their team will have to perform the project assignment independently. Further, anyone fired will automatically lose the five points for team evaluation. No one can be fired within 48 hours of the time that a project is due. Please note that the syllabus is only a guide to the semester s activities, and not all assignments are on the syllabus. As the semester progresses I will make additional assignments based on class needs and opportunity.
