Evaluation by Group 1
Subject: Group 1 eval of Group 2
MIME-Version: 1.0
(A) Evaluating Unit: Group 1
(B) Evaluation of Group 2
(C) Responses to Various Evaluation Categories
(1) Topic and Paper Selection: 10 Points (0-15)
The use of semiempirical methods for geometry optimization of anions is
not reliable. A paper with reliable methods would have been better.
(2) Synopsis and Identification of Specific Problem: 12 Points (0-15)
(3) Computational Section: 8 Points (0-10)
(4) Format, Number and Types of Questions: 9 Points (0-10)
(5) Quality of the Questions: 19 Points (0-20)
Excellent questions.
(6) Presentation & Defense: 18 Points (0-20)
(7) Overall Impression. 8 Points (0-10)

Evaluation by Group 3
The Hueckelberries (3)
Nitrosamine (2)
(1) Topic and Paper Selection: 10
Semi-empirical methods are not very good for computation.
(2) Synopsis and Identification of Specific Problem: 12
Specific problem is not clearly defined, what significance beyond
the scope of the paper?
(3) Computational Section: 8
Need more information to answer the questions.
(4) Format, number, types of questions: 10
Criteria met.
(5) Quality of Questions: 13.5
Question 2&4 seemed unnecessary
(6) Presentation and Defense: 18
Good, but a little hard to follow.
(7) Overall Impression: 7.5
Semi-emperical methods aren't dealt with in this class, problem
set would not be appropriate.
Total score: 79

Evaluation by Group 5
Subject: Peer evaluation of group 2 by group 5
MIME-Version: 1.0
Section 1: 14/15
Very interesting choice of paper
Section 2: 13.5/15
Section 3: 7.5/10
Section 4: 7/10
Some of the catagories for the questions appear to be wrong, eg. qu.2
Section 5: 14/20
We found question 5 very confusing- maybe that is a consiquence of its
length. Question 4 was not very in depth. It could have done with being
related to the general goal of the paper a bit more, giving it more
significance
Section 6: 16.5/20
The overheads could have done with being a lot less crowded.
Section 7: 8/10
