How well did the person’s self-rating of task performance correlate with the actual task scores? If there is a low correspondence, why would there be?
What were the results of the comparison of the mean scores between the Business and Non-Business majors? What did you expect the results to be? Were your expectations supported?
Based on your readings and what you learned through doing this exercise, how effective is this assessment approach? Explain your answer and integrate with class readings.
