Student Self-Report
For question 5, instead of asking “Did you manage your tasks on time and thoroughly?”, Teacher Freeman asked a series of questions
1 What tasks were you assigned?
2 Did each of these tasks have clear deliverables and timelines?
3 Do you keep a log of what tasks you completed and when these (activities) were done?
If yes, may I have a look at it?
4 Which of your group members were responsible for reviewing the tasks you completed? 5. Did you receive confirmation from your group that each task was thoroughly done?
Based on the responses to these questions and the evidence (log book) presented, Teacher Freeman was able to make a determination as to whether Aaliyah should receive the score for this trait
