Our program allows teams of students to assess each other on multiple aspects,
such as, contribution to the project, quality of work and
punctuality. This can be used by course teachers to get insights in the dynamics within the
group and find out if there are any problems relating to team work in the group or if one
student did exceptionally well/awful. The program highlights the outliers so
assessments can be made easier and more intuitive.
The program allows for any amount of teachers to create any amount of courses
containing any amount of groups with any amount of students. The program is
designed in a way to minimize the strain on the teacher.
Before this program existed, the teacher had to print out a couple of pages for each student to
fill in. After this the teacher had to go through all the paperwork and check everything
himself. Now, everything can be done online, saving a bunch of effort and paper.
Our customer was Dr. Guus Ramackers, a researcher and lecturer at the
Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science.
The customer had a clear idea
of what he wanted and had a project and requirements ready from the start.
Our meetings were always productive, we have always been able to
discuss everything and never left with lingering questions (often answering more questions
than we had before heading into the meeting).
Within our team there were quite a few differences in experience with different technologies
(Frameworks, languages, server hosting, etc.). Exchanging our knowledge
really helped us to get a feel of the
project.
During regular meetings, we commonly worked on the project helped
which helped in keeping everyone involved in the
project and actively partake in planning and discussion.
