"Evaluation" Delving Deeper

Self evaluation is more difficult than I expected.  It seems very indulgent in a way to deem your own work successful.  I suppose that is why we create specific criteria to use in our evaluation.  My group's criteria were based on the Standards for NC media coordinators - we focused on the big ideas of leadership, developing 21st century skills for a variety of learners, knowledge of learning, and self reflection.  I think our criteria was specific enough to be able to evaluate without bias.  I tried to look at my group members' units objectively and based my evaluations on the criteria that we outlined specifically.  Their units were both very successful as was my evaluation of my own.  I think that we all tried to use a high taxonomy level of collaboration in our units which naturally drove them to meet the criteria that we outlined.
