Last BritLit homework before the break: Grading your PBL groups

It's been a long time, but I think we're finally ready to debut our awesome Middle Ages PBL poster. Once I get a look at it all together and finally look at all your pieces (which I've nearly done), I'll give you your points, which will (hopefully) be worth a solid letter grade. Included in that grade, though, should be some sort of self-evaluation, how you think your group worked.

Therefore, please, by next Sunday (11/27), for both the A-Day and B-Day classes, please do this group member review once for each member of your group. It looks long, but it's pretty easy, and just multiple choices. This IS anonymous, so don't try to make a group member who hasn't helped you out into a helpful person.
