After exploring objective measures for student assessment currently employed in negotiation courses, co-author Yael Efron and I set out to determine and explore the most subjective measures teachers apply. After having discovered that the most objective measure of all – old-school quizzes – was rarely employed, we were not at all surprised to conclude that the most subjective measure employed is also (by far!) the most popular one, an assessment tool encountered in nearly all negotiation courses. I’ve uploaded the paper to SSRN for easy access and download. If you have ever given a grade based on “Course Participation” (or have ever received one), you’re going to want to read this.  http://ssrn.com/abstract=2294099
