Completion of Task
5 All members of the group played their assigned roles throughout the activity in completing the task in the required amount of time and with outstanding effort.
4 Most of the members of the group participate most of the time in completing the task on time in a more-than-adequate fashion. Most participants played their part most of the time.
3 At least half of the member of the group played their assigned roles in working
to achieving solutions for the activity in an adequate fashion.
2 Only one student in the group is on task and has enabled the group to complete the task.
1 The group and individuals in group are not on task most of the time and did not do
an adequate job at what they did undertake.
Later, I learned that this
approach to group work discussions and group training is quite similar to the practices
of coaching trainees and employees that are used all-around the globe to train new
employees and working professionals alike. "Coaching can be defined as a continuous process of providing students
with feedback to enhance, maintain or improve their performance. The coach
observes performance, shares knowledge and expertise, and provides
encouragement to assist students in reaching continuously higher levels of
performance. Coaching enables students to develop their thinking and actions in
response to differing situations. The coaching approach encourages learning, growth
and teamwork all at the same time. (NDT)" In line with the principles of coaching, I
quickly began adapting the rubric to a variety of daily group activities--as
well as for long-term projects, group presentations or writings.
