Following the feedback received from the pilot trials, several improvements were made to the functionality and usability of the tool. At the end of March, the improved tool was presented by Andy and me (Suraj) to the computing staff at a regular weekly team meeting. The computing staff members teaching/assessing group work were requested to volunteer to take part in the evaluation phase of this project. Computer Networking group project module, Computing group project module and Business Computing group project module tutors agreed to v take part in the evaluation phase. Following the presentation, one tutor requested a feature to import and export individual student grades of each group in CSV/Excel format. This feature was then incorporated.
The tool is also now hosted on the computing web domain at:
