Abstract

Nowadays, cooperative learning plays an important role in university and other types of education. However, one of the biggest concerns of cooperative learning is how to evaluate the results of individual members of a team. In this work, we have taken into consideration of important factors, such as the way in arranging group, group size, etc. and have performed a number of case studies in different subjects. Finally, we have proposed solutions of individual assessment for most common types of cooperative work used in teaching at the Department of Physics of Lund University.
