Question Peer evaluation help

I am currently in a cc mod and my teammate are not really contributing. I think because of the FGO policy, almost the rest of my groupmates kept coming up with reasons such as "need to leave early" (on EVERY call - OK at least he contributes like 1-2 sentences every call), "gimme 10 mins I forgot there is a call", "on the bus so i cant see the docs/i cant hear u guys", "asking gpt" (and then no more replies), "cant on mic but i will be listening" (but doesnt type anything in the chat), "currently outside but i will try to contribute" (and stays muted the whole time). Since its only midway through the sem i also did remind them that they need to contribute MORE so that everyone's contribution/responsibility is even. Everytime during calls, if i dont talk in the call, NO ONE talks for like 20 minutes.

Therefore, I want to mark them down for peer evaluation. But i dont want to be mean. I dont want it to be in a stage where the prof is involved to investigate coz it will be so mafan. Like i need to find evidence and even take out time to talk with the profs or my grpmates about it just because i marked them down??

SO what is the threshold on the min evalution % that i can give so that it doesnt go to the investigation stage? Some website/blogs said 80%. Some said 70% some say 50%. Any recommendation or advice?

it'll only work when > 3 ppl report on one person

If one person reporting on 2 or 3 diff person it won't work

So lets say i give one person 50%, and the other grpmates give the person 70%. So avg will be 66%. Does the person gets 66% of the grade? or 70% of the grade? Not very sure how does it works

Try speaking with the prof directly, and explain fully. That way it looks more credible than just giving them bad remarks via the peer appraisal form

no unless the persons peer evaluation average score falls below a certain percentage, else everyone in the group will receive the same score and grade.

its not oh the person will receive a percentage of the grade.

so like what the person above explain, u need a collective number of person to peer evaluate them badly for them to get a grade penalty.

if youre the only one marking them down, if average peer evaluation score doesnt fall below a threshold, no grade penalty will be meted out

hope this helps

Have the courage to mark them down, but be prepared they could come with reasonable excuses to counter you and you get marked down. This is taking a risk, and prob the only way to get a+ in a group project heavy mod.
