Presentations

 

Peer assessment equals 30% of your mark and 70% is my mark. Please give a mark from 1-20 for each of the five categories below. Please be fair, meaning no favours – no giving all 20s unless the person really deserves it. This is an academic thingy not a popularity contest. I will divide the final mark by ten and ten will come from your report paper due on the last day of presentation (10 December) to equal 20 points for this assignment.

 

Ψ

Ψ     

Issues – was there at least one issue discussed that addressed either a negative or a positive to globalisation?

Ψ     

Conclusion – was there a proper conclusion?

Ψ        

Group Presentation equals cohesiveness of presentation with others in the group – this mark cannot be given until the whole group presentation is complete -
