-=====Design Review Grading===== +=====Design Reviews=====
-Coaches are involved in evaluating design review submissions in two ways: assessing their team's work and reviewing two other team's submissions. +
- +
-First, they review their +
-own team's work and make suggestions for improvement before the submission.  The coach should use the scoresheet to evaluate the report +
-to provide the best feedback to the team. +
- +
-Second, as a Capstone coach, you are responsible for evaluating the design of +
-two other teams in your pod. You will evaluate their submitted stage approval +
-package, provide comments and a grade, and attend the design review to give +
-them verbal feedback as well. Please take your evaluation responsibility seriously.  Use the scoresheet to +
-evaluate the artifacts and reports.  Provide feedback that can help the students +
-improve. +
- +
-The dates and times for each of the design reviews will be assigned by the instructors. +
-The Opportunity Development Review, Concept Review, and Architecture Review times will be assigned during the  +
-Product Development Introduction.  The Winter Planning Review, Subsystem Engineering Review, and System Refinement +
-Review times will be assigned in late October based on the requested dates provided +
-in the Project Milestones Table created during [[..:project-wiki:design_reviews:opportunity_development_review|Opportunity Development]]. +
-Instructors will make every effort to have your design reviews take place on days +
-you have indicated will work with your schedule. +
- +
-The evaluation process should take about 90 minutes.  The process shown here +
-may help you to effectively complete your evaluations without spending excessive +
-time. +
- +
-**//Watch for submission emails//** +
- +
-The team submits their stage approval package on the Capstone web site at least three +
-class days (excluding weekends and holidays) before the review by 10:00 AM. +
- +
-The team submission triggers an email to the review coaches, reminding them that +
-the review is due within two class days (excluding weekends and holidays). +
- +
-**//Collect the appropriate materials//** +
- +
-The review coach goes to the Evaluations section of the [[https://byucapstone.byu.edu/dashboard|Capstone Dashboard]] +
-to see the evaluations that are ready to be done.  This page has links to the submitted +
-stage approval package and to the scoresheet for the stage.  It also indicates the date and +
-time that evaluations are due. +
- +
-You should collect the following: +
- +
-  -The stage approval section from the [[..:project-wiki:design_reviews:|Project Wiki]] for the current stage (this is also available as the Stage Reference link from the [[https://byucapstone.byu.edu/dashboard|Evaluations Dashboard]]). +
-  -The scoresheet for the current stage (the Scoresheet Template link from the [[https://byucapstone.byu.edu/dashboard|Evaluations Dashboard]]). +
-  -The stage approval package submitted by the team for the current stage. +
-  -If you are evaluating the final submission of a semester report, a change summary document. +
- +
-**//Review the requirements for the stage//** +
- +
-Take a few minutes to review the stage approval section and the scoresheet for +
-the current stage.  Pay special attention to the Review Items and the Excellent +
-criteria found in the scoresheet.  These are the specific items you will need +
-to be checking, in addition to your general evaluation of the overall work. +
- +
-**//Read and make comments on the submitted materials//** +
- +
-Plan about 30 minutes to read through the +
-Design Report and the Primary Artifacts. +
-You may wish to set a timer to help you stay within 30 minutes. +
- +
-As you are reading, make comments about the materials you read.  You may +
-make comments in a separate file, or you may prefer to add comments to +
-the PDF file. It's important for the team +
-to get comments about content, not just suggestions on writing mechanics. +
- +
-When your time is up (or you have finished evaluating the Design Report +
-and the Primary Artifacts), plan 30 minutes to evaluate +
-a selection of the Supporting Artifacts.  Again, it may be useful to set +
-a timer. +
- +
-Pick supporting artifacts that are important to the evaluation of the stage. +
-You may wish to scan through all of the supporting artifacts and then focus +
-on those that need the most work. But make sure that you can evaluate the +
-completeness of the set of artifacts, as well as the quality of individual +
-artifacts. +
- +
-If the stage requires engineering drawings, be sure you evaluate at least +
-a couple of drawings.  If the project requires both mechanical and electrical +
-drawings, evaluate at least one of each.  If drawings are needed and are +
-missing, do NOT give stage approval. +
- +
-Pay special attention to test procedures.  Are they complete enough for you +
-to follow them? +
- +
-For test reports, make sure there is evidence of actual measured data, not +
-just summary assessments. +
- +
-Check for engineering analysis.  Have appropriate analyses been done?  Are +
-they done correctly? +
- +
-Make sure you include comments on the supporting artifacts. +
- +
-**//Enter scores on the scoresheet//** +
- +
-Armed with your comments and your reading, you should now be ready to enter +
-scores on the scoresheet.  Go through the elements one-by-one, evaluating +
-the submitted work to see where it lies relative to the given criteria.  As +
-you go through this process, you may wish to add additional comments to +
-your comment document. +
- +
-You should be able to complete this stage of the evaluation in 30 minutes or less. +
- +
-Don't forget to enter your name and the team name and/or number at the top +
-of the scoresheet. +
- +
-Once you've completed score entry, make a note of the total score.  You'll +
-need it for your submission. +
- +
-**//Submit your evaluation//** +
- +
-With the score calculated, you're ready to submit your evaluation.  Going +
-back to the [[https://byucapstone.byu.edu/dashboard|Capstone Dashboard]], +
-scroll down to the Evaluations +
-section and click the link under the Evaluation heading.  You will then +
-need to enter a grade and click Save Grade, choose the scoresheet file and upload it, and +
-choose the comments file and upload it. +
-Then click the "Submission Complete" button to confirm you have submitted your evaluation. +
- +
-The evaluation is due by 8:00 AM one class day before the design review.  This allows the +
-team to read the reviewer's comments and be prepared to discuss them in the review. +
- +
-<html><div class="capnote"> +
-NOTE: If the team is late on their original submission, it is not necessary for the +
-review coach to assign a score.  However, it would be helpful for the review coach to +
-provide as many comments as are feasible within the limited time. +
-</div></html> +
- +
-When the final grades on the submission are posted, if the grades given by the two +
-review coaches differ by 7 points or more, the pod instructor will grade the submission +
-and the final grade will be the median of the three grades awarded. +
- +
-**//Attend the review//** +
- +
-The review coach attends the design review at the scheduled place and time.  The +
-reviewer gives feedback to the team in a manner that is aimed at helping the team improve. +
-Weaknesses should be clearly noted, but every effort should be made to give feedback in +
-a kind and positive way, even when the feedback is negative. +
- +
-Following the final reviews of each semester, the team has an opportunity to submit a revised approval +
-package.  If the team chooses to resubmit, they must prepare a revised package and a list +
-of the changes that were made when the package was +
-changed for resubmission.  If the team chooses to make a resubmission, the review coach +
-will receive an email when the resubmission is complete. +
- +
- +
-At any time, you can visit your [[https://byucapstone.byu.edu/dashboard|Capstone dashboard]] to see +
-what (if any) grading responsibilities are currently outstanding.+
  
 +All design review requirements are now at capstone.byu.edu/resources
