STEAM: an interesting resource for teaching

The Simple Team Experience Assessment Measure (STEAM) allows faculty to offer peer evaluations to student teams. A peer evaluation simply asks students how their peers performed on a team project. Peer evaluations, when properly implemented, allow an instructor both to assess how well individuals performed on a team as well as provide feedback to students so they become better at working on teams. For those unfamiliar with teams or peer evaluations a list of resources will be found later.
