Automated Team Project Management and Evaluation Through Interactive Web Modules

Team projects represent an important aspect of the microelectronic systems education. In group projects, students learn to work together, delegate responsibilities, and manage time. It is di cult for instructors to evaluate the performance of students participating in team projects. Evaluation of an individual's performance requires a fair comparison of the team's work as compared to other teams in the class. It also requires an understanding of the intra-team dynamics. The project gradebot, introduced in this paper, is a new, web-based learning tool that provides automated features to manage, evaluate, and grade team projects. The tool is compatible with web-based distributed learning tools that are currently in use for individualized instruction.
