BUSI 440 Case Study Forums (2)

The student is required to participate in Case Study Forums in order to generate discussion, interact with each case study, and reflect on other students’ perspectives. The student is required to post 1 thread of at least 500 words in response to the assigned case study. The student will then post replies of at least 150 words to 2 other classmates’ threads. Each thread and reply must include an integration of biblical principles and have at least 1 Scripture reference, the current edition of the Compensation text and scholarly/peer-reviewed sources (2 for posts and 1 for each reply – each less than 10 years old) cited in current APA format.

BUSI 440 Evaluations (2)

After each part of the Group Project, the student will evaluate the

contributions of each of the other group members using the Peer Evaluation Form. Students will also be evaluated by other group members. The resulting scores will be used to provide a final Peer Evaluation score for each part of the Group Project. All Peer Evaluation scores will be awarded provisionally.

The grade will be determined by averaging the total of all Peer Evaluations for each student for the specific Peer Evaluation assignment. For example: On the evaluation, if a student receives a total of 90 points from 4 group members, and 90/4 = a grade of 22.5 points. Failure to submit a Peer Evaluation will result in a score of 0 for the student in the specific Peer Evaluation assignment. For example: If a student is rated by group members, but does not submit a Peer Evaluation for the other group members—the student will receive a 0 for that specific Peer Evaluation assignment.
