majority of students received final grades of an A+ to an A- (Figure 10). Of the studentsreceiving B grades, 66% worked on teams of 2 or more and these students usually had at leastone teammate who received a higher grade. This variability of grading within a team reflects theefforts of the instructors and advisors to assign grades as fairly as possible, using advisor andpeer feedback to help assess individual contributions to the Capstone project. Of the studentsreceiving C grades, 60% worked as individuals. In addition, their advisors were single-affiliationadvisors, mostly from BME (60%) and some from nursing (20%).
