Group Presentations Evaluations

Peer Evaluations for Group Name and Names: ______

Please be fair and honest in your assessment, and please assess the group as a whole rather than assessing individual performances. Under each presentation area is a list of important factors to be considered. In the comments section, circle all of the prewritten comments that apply. You may also add additional comments under the grade or on the back. In the grade section, circle the letter grade that most appropriately reflects the overall quality of that presentation area. You may circle an individual grade or you may circle two grades indicating somewhere between the two (ie. circling an A indicates a solid A grade or circling an AB indicates an A-, B+ grade).
