the team presentations, theinstructors controlled the Q&A sessions. Since they were in the front and facing the front, theyoften did not notice when people in the audience had their hands raised, which resulted in eitherthe question being ignored or forcing the presenting team to be brave enough to override theinstructors and call on audience members to ask their questions. This act, through a learningpartnership lens, is tantamount to taking the floor from an authority figure. In the course thishierarchical structure may have led to tighter teams in which students learned to self-author andindependently collaborate. However, this hierarchical obstacle also may have restricted theamount of co-learning that can happen between the different

creative solutions, but the rubrics didn’t encourage orvalue that creativity.Students were focused on points instead of learningAnalytic rubrics can lead students to focus more on their targeted score or grade and less onwhether their product is an effective example of what they were expected to produce (Panadero& Jonsson, 2013). It’s not surprising that our students are focused on their grades or that theycare about how their score on a particular assignment could have been higher; however, theassociation of points with the specific categories on the analytic rubric (e.g., 5pts for includingcenter of buoyancy and center of gravity calculations; 10pts for performance during the Q&A)seemed to lead students to focus too intently on the
