<strong>''Dear iGEMers,''</strong><br />
<br />
The iGEM judges are trying to do a better job with assessment of iGEM team projects. This year, we have moved to a system that allows judges to vote on the aspects of a team’s project and allows us to tally those votes to determine awards. We tried the new system out at the Regional Jamborees, fixed some weaknesses, and used it at this year’s World Championship Jamboree. We still have work to do and hope to make it even better for iGEM next year.<br />
<br />
You can now get feedback on your team’s performance directly from the judges. You can find this feedback on the [https://igem.org/Judging_Feedback <strong> Judging Feedback page </strong>]. iGEM teams were assessed by judges studying the wikis, examining parts in the Registry, seeing presentations, and speaking to teams at their posters.<br />
<br />
This year we introduced a computer-based ‘Rubric’ that encompasses the values we feel are important to iGEM teams and their projects. The Rubric is represented in an online ballot for the judges. We have made a lot of changes to the way the judging works in 2012 and we’re proud of our new system! This document outlines how the new system was devised over the last 6 months with the help of the head judging committee. <br />
<br />
First, our new rubric-assisted judging system reflects the same values that iGEM judges have embraced in previous years: originality, hard work, scientific rigor, usefulness, societal impact, and creativity to name a few. Second, scores are recorded in the newly redesigned judges’ ballot system. <br />
<br />
The new Rubric includes a standard grading language that enables judges to easily express what they think about the quality of each aspect of the projects. For example, a judge will be asked ‘Did you find the presentation engaging?’ and can choose one of seven responses, ranging from ‘Kept me on the edge of my seat’ to ‘Put me to sleep’. These options correspond with a score of 6 (best) to 1 (worst) and 0 (doesn’t apply). We created a Rubric for both the [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/a/ab/IGEM_2012_Regional_Rubric.pdf <strong>Regional Competitions </strong>]and the [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/8/8f/IGEM_2012_World_Championship_Rubric.pdf <strong>World Championship Jamboree</strong>]. <br />
<br />
The rubric organizes key aspects of iGEM projects under the traditional categories, including the Presentation, Wiki, Poster, and Special Prizes. A judge will evaluate each aspect by selecting one response (from strongly positive to negative or absent) from a simple list.<br />
<br />
Once every aspect was voted on, all votes were tallied and presented in the form of team rankings for each award. Therefore, every judge who evaluated any aspect of a team’s project contributed directly to that team’s score and ranking. This new system and the theory behind it is based on Ballinski and Laraki’s “Majority Judgment” thesis[http://www.amazon.com/Majority-Judgment-Measuring-Ranking-Electing/dp/0262015137/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352999536&sr=8-1&keywords=majority+judgement] . <br />
<br />
In the regional competitions, the medal criteria were included in the beginning of the rubric, as an introduction to the team and as a way to view how each team self-designated their project. The rubric enabled judges to evaluate each iGEM project with the same metric. Therefore scores, rankings, and various awards are now more consistent across all regions. <br />
<br />
Because every judge votes on some to most aspects, we have the ability to provide you with these actual scores. This gives you direct feedback from all the judges on every aspect of your project. We have not been able to provide such complete feedback in the past. <br />
<br />
2012 is the first year this system has been used in iGEM and the Regional Jamborees served as trials. The system was changed and improved for the World Championship. We removed sections for the medals and awards that were not being handed out at the WCJ. We also refocused aspects and re-wrote language choices to better reflect values we think are most important to iGEM. <br />
<br />
This system may not be perfect. We will continue to work on it in the coming years so we can better evaluate all the hard work you, the teams, put into your projects. Thank you for having patience during this transition.<br />
<br />
<strong>''Feedback presentation ''</strong><br />
<br />
Your feedback is presented in the form of a table with two columns. The first is the "Average Score", which is the average of the judges votes. The second column is the the category (in the example below "Project") with the aspects listed below. If you have any questions about feedback please contact the judging committee: <strong> judging AT igem DOT org </strong>and put "<strong>iGEM 2012 FEEDBACK QUESTIONS</strong>" in the subject line. <br />

First, our new rubric-assisted judging system reflects the same values that iGEM judges have embraced in previous years: originality, hard work, scientific rigor, usefulness, societal impact, and creativity to name a few. Second, scores are recorded in the newly redesigned judges’ ballot system. <br />
<br />
The new Rubric includes a standard grading language that enables judges to easily express what they think about the quality of each aspect of the projects. For example, a judge will be asked ‘Did you find the presentation engaging?’ and can choose one of seven responses, ranging from ‘Kept me on the edge of my seat’ to ‘Put me to sleep’. These options correspond with a score of 6 (best) to 1 (worst) and 0 (doesn’t apply). We created a Rubric for both the [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/a/ab/IGEM_2012_Regional_Rubric.pdf <strong>Regional Competitions </strong>]and the [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/8/8f/IGEM_2012_World_Championship_Rubric.pdf <strong>World Championship Jamboree</strong>]. <br />
<br />
The rubric organizes key aspects of iGEM projects under the traditional categories, including the Presentation, Wiki, Poster, and Special Prizes. A judge will evaluate each aspect by selecting one response (from strongly positive to negative or absent) from a simple list.<br />
<br />
Once every aspect was voted on, all votes were tallied and presented in the form of team rankings for each award. Therefore, every judge who evaluated any aspect of a team’s project contributed directly to that team’s score and ranking. This new system and the theory behind it is based on Ballinski and Laraki’s “Majority Judgment” thesis[http://www.amazon.com/Majority-Judgment-Measuring-Ranking-Electing/dp/0262015137/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1352999536&sr=8-1&keywords=majority+judgement] . <br />
<br />
In the regional competitions, the medal criteria were included in the beginning of the rubric, as an introduction to the team and as a way to view how each team self-designated their project. The rubric enabled judges to evaluate each iGEM project with the same metric. Therefore scores, rankings, and various awards are now more consistent across all regions. <br />
<br />
Because every judge votes on some to most aspects, we have the ability to provide you with these actual scores. This gives you direct feedback from all the judges on every aspect of your project. We have not been able to provide such complete feedback in the past. <br />
<br />
2012 is the first year this system has been used in iGEM and the Regional Jamborees served as trials. The system was changed and improved for the World Championship. We removed sections for the medals and awards that were not being handed out at the WCJ. We also refocused aspects and re-wrote language choices to better reflect values we think are most important to iGEM. <br />
<br />
This system may not be perfect. We will continue to work on it in the coming years so we can better evaluate all the hard work you, the teams, put into your projects. Thank you for having patience during this transition.<br />
<br />
<strong>''Feedback presentation ''</strong><br />
<br />
Your feedback is presented in the form of a table with two columns. The first is the "Average Score", which is the average of the judges votes. The second column is the the category (in the example below "Project") with the aspects listed below. If you have any questions about feedback please contact the judging committee: <strong> judging AT igem DOT org </strong>and put "<strong>iGEM 2012 FEEDBACK QUESTIONS</strong>" in the subject line. <br />

<div><strong>''Dear iGEMers,''</strong><br />
<div id="requirements" style="width:600px; text-align:justify;"><br />
<br />
The iGEM judges are trying to do a better job with assessment of iGEM team projects. This year, we have moved to a system that allows judges to vote on the aspects of a team’s project and allows us to tally those votes to determine awards. We tried the new system out at the Regional Jamborees, fixed some weaknesses, and used it at this year’s World Championship Jamboree. We still have work to do and hope to make it even better for iGEM next year.<br />
<br />
You can now get feedback on your team’s performance directly from the judges. You can find this feedback on the [https://igem.org/Judging_Feedback <strong> Judging Feedback page </strong>]. iGEM teams were assessed by judges studying the wikis, examining parts in the Registry, seeing presentations, and speaking to teams at their posters.<br />
<br />
This year we introduced a computer-based ‘Rubric’ that encompasses the values we feel are important to iGEM teams and their projects. The Rubric is represented in an online ballot for the judges. We have made a lot of changes to the way the judging works in 2012 and we’re proud of our new system! This document outlines how the new system was devised over the last 6 months with the help of the head judging committee. <br />
<br />
First, our new rubric-assisted judging system reflects the same values that iGEM judges have embraced in previous years: originality, hard work, scientific rigor, usefulness, societal impact, and creativity to name a few.

These options correspond with a score of 6 (best) to 1 (worst) and 0 (doesn’t apply). We created a Rubric for both the [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/a/ab/IGEM_2012_Regional_Rubric.pdf <strong>Regional Competitions </strong>]and the [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/8/8f/IGEM_2012_World_Championship_Rubric.pdf <strong>World Championship Jamboree</strong>]. <br />
<br />

<strong>''Feedback presentation ''</strong><br />
<br />
Your feedback is presented in the form of a table with three columns. The first is the "Total Votes", which represents the number of times a judge has voted on this aspect. The second column is the "Average Score", which is the average of these votes. Please note the number of votes does not affect the score. Finally, the third column is the the category (in the example below "Overall") with the aspects listed below. If you have any questions about feedback please contact the judging committee: <strong> judging AT igem DOT org </strong>and put "<strong>iGEM 2012 FEEDBACK QUESTIONS</strong>" in the subject line. <br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy has been a natural catastrophe with major flooding and outages in New York, New Jersey and Washington DC. While Boston is recovering well and Logan airport is open, many flights have been cancelled. We are concerned that some iGEM teams will be delayed or unable to attend the Jamboree.</p><br />
<p>We are trying to prepare alternative methods of participation for teams who are affected by Hurricane Sandy causing them to be delayed or miss the Jamboree altogether.<br />
<p><i>IF your travel plans have been affected, please let iGEM Headquarters know as soon as possible.</i></p><br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.</p><br />
<p><strong>The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.</strong></p><br />
<p><strong>However</strong>, the storm caused major damage in the New York and New Jersey area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.</p><br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy has been a natural catastrophe with major flooding and outages in New York, New Jersey and Washington DC. While Boston is recovering well and Logan airport is open, many flights have been cancelled. We are concerned that some iGEM teams will be delayed or unable to attend the Jamboree.</p><br />
<p>We are trying to prepare alternative methods of participation for teams who are affected by Hurricane Sandy causing them to be delayed or miss the Jamboree altogether.<br />
<p><i>IF your travel plans have been affected, please let iGEM Headquarters know as soon as possible.</i></p><br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.</p><br />
<p><strong>The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.</strong></p><br />
<p><strong>However</strong>, the storm caused major damage in the New York and New Jersey area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.</p><br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy has been a natural catastrophe with major flooding and outages in New York, New Jersey and Washington DC. While Boston is recovering well and Logan airport is open, many flights have been cancelled. We are concerned that some iGEM teams will be delayed or unable to attend the Jamboree.</p><br />
<p>We are trying to prepare alternative methods of participation for teams who are affected by Hurricane Sandy causing them to be delayed or miss the Jamboree altogether.<br />
<p><i>IF your travel plans have been affected, please let iGEM Headquarters know as soon as possible.</i></p><br />
<p>See the <a href="https://2012.igem.org/World_Championship_Jamboree/Hurricane">World Championship Jamboree contingency page</a> for details.</p><br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.</p><br />
<p><strong>The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.</strong></p><br />
<p><strong>However</strong>, the storm caused major damage in the New York and New Jersey area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.</p><br />

<div>===Judging Assignment===<br />
Please login to your [https://igem.org/Judge_List Judges Dashboard] to see the teams you have been assigned.<br />
<br />
Evaluation of teams takes place in the judging dashboards. Your job is to look over wikis, presentations, posters and human practices work done by teams and cast your votes in the online ballot.<br />
<br />
===Judging Dashboard===<br />
<br />
When you login to your judging dashboard, you should see the following view:<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<html><center><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/d/d9/KdM_Dashboard.png" style="width:700px"></center></html><br />
<br><br />
In my judging dashboard, I'm a member of team Example 2012 and in the past, I was a member of Edinburgh 2006 team. At the bottom of this view is my assignment. As this is a guide, I've only been assigned team "Example". <br />
<br><br />
If you want to add more teams to evaluate, you can do so with the "Add this team" drop down menu. This option might be useful if you're in a presentation by a team not in your original assignment and you want to vote on their presentation. <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<html><center><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/2/24/KdM_Add_Team.png" style="width:700px"></center></html><br />
<br><br />
<br />
===Evaluating Teams===<br />
<br />
When you click on a team in your assignment, the voting ballot appears. There is some general information about the team (abstract, etc) at the top of the page and links to the teams Roster, Wiki, Judging Form, Parts and DNA Samples. Below this information is the ballot itself. It is composed of 6 categories:<br />
<br />
<li>Project<br />
<li>Best Wiki<br />
<li>Presentation <br />
<li>Poster<br />
<li>Best Human Practices Advance <br />
<li>Best Model<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<br />
This guide will only focus on the Project category, but the other categories function in the same manner. <br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<html><center><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/3/32/KdM_Ex_Ballot.png" style="width:700px"></center></html><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
These 10 aspects were selected to best represent an iGEM project. Each aspect has a language scale from 1 - 6 and NA/No vote. When you click on an aspect, the language choices appear.<br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<html><center><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/5/5f/KdM_Ballot_open.png" style="width:700px"></center></html><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
To cast your vote, you click on an aspect and select the language choice you best feel reflects the teams performance. When you have done that, the language choice you have made appears green next to the aspect. If you have made comments on that aspect, an ellipsis (...) will appear next to the language choice. These comments are only visible to you. <br />
<br><br />
<br><br />
<html><center><img src="https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/igem.org/c/cb/KdM_EX_Votes.png" style="width:700px"></center></html><br />
<br />
<br><br />
<br />
Once you have evaluated all the aspects for your team, you can complete aspects for the other teams in your assignment. The voting ballot is identical for every team, so once you are familiar with it, evaluations should become simpler and faster.<br />
<br />
===Reviewing your Votes===<br />
<br />
If you want to look over your votes as a matrix view, there is a link in the top right hand corner of the Ballot. This link toggles the ballot from 'Normal View' to 'Grid View'. In Grid View, all the language choices are visible simultaneously, allowing you to quickly change multiple votes during a presentation or information sharing meeting about the team. <br />
<br />

===Judging Handbook - relavent for 2012 Regional Competitions===<br />
<br />
The [https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/2012/8/8c/2012iGEMJudgingHandbook-final.pdf Judging Handbook] was created to help answer questions about the new judging system in 2012. It contains information on the initial system deployed for the regional competitions in 2012, but not for the World Championship Jamboree.<br />

<div>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.<br />
<br />
The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.<br />
<br />
However, the storm caused major damage in the NY/NJ area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''IF your travel plans have been affected, please let iGEM Headquarters know as soon as possible.'''<br />
<br />
===Delayed Flights===<br />
If you were scheduled to present on Saturday but your flight is delayed, please tell iGEM HQ right away.<br />
<br />
There is some room in the schedule to add in a few more presentation slots.<br />
<br />
Note that it is not easy to change the schedule. Please use this option ONLY if you know you will not be arriving in Boston for Saturday but WILL be able to attend on Sunday. Otherwise, see below.<br />
<br />
<span style="color:red; font-weight:bold">Contact HQ By:</span> Friday November 2 at 3:00pm EDT<br />
<br />
<br />
===Cancelled Flights===<br />
If you were scheduled to present at the Jamboree but your flight has been cancelled, please tell iGEM HQ right away.<br />
<br />
We know how hard teams worked to advance and present at the World Championship Jamboree. So, we are giving teams who cannot get to Boston the option of sending us a video of your presentation by FRIDAY at 3pm. You '''must''' send an email to iGEM HQ and tell us that you are wishing to send a video because you cannot make it to Boston. Your presentation will be shown during your scheduled time slot and, if possible, we can conduct a 5 minute question and answer session via Skype. Due to the audio and voice limitations, only video recorded presentations will be accepted. <br />

<p>As announced below, the iGEM 2012 World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled. As Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29, team travel plans may be affected due to the impact of the storm on areas such as NY/NJ or Washington DC.</p><br />
<p>IF your travel plans have been affected, please let iGEM Headquarters know as soon as possible.</p><br />
<p>We are trying to prepare alternative methods of participation for teams whose travel plans were affected by Hurricane Sandy causing them to be delayed or cancelled altogether.</p><br />

<p>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.</p><br />
<p><strong>The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.</strong></p><br />
<p><strong>However</strong>, the storm caused major damage in the NY/NJ area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.</p><br />

<div>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.<br />
<br />
The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.<br />
<br />
However, the storm caused major damage in the NY/NJ area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.<br />
<br />
<br />
'''IF your travel plans have been affected, please let iGEM Headquarters know as soon as possible.'''<br />
<br />
===Delayed Flights===<br />
If you were scheduled to present on Saturday but your flight is delayed, please tell iGEM HQ right away.<br />
<br />
There is some room in the schedule to add in a few more presentation slots.<br />
<br />
Note that it is not easy to change the schedule. Please use this option ONLY if you know you will not be arriving in Boston for Saturday but WILL be able to attend on Sunday. Otherwise, see below.<br />
<br />
<span style="color:red; font-weight:bold">Deadline:</span> Friday November 2 at 3:00pm EDT<br />
<br />
<br />
===Cancelled Flights===<br />
If you were scheduled to present at the Jamboree but your flight has been cancelled, please tell iGEM HQ right away.<br />
<br />
We know how hard teams worked to advance and present at the World Championship Jamboree. So, we are giving teams who cannot get to Boston the option of sending us a video of your presentation by FRIDAY at 3pm. You '''must''' send an email to iGEM HQ and tell us that you are wishing to send a video because you cannot make it to Boston. Your presentation will be shown during your scheduled time slot and, if possible, we can conduct a 5 minute question and answer session via Skype.

<p>Hurricane Sandy hit the East Coast of the US on Monday October 29. The Boston area fared well with minor damage.</p><br />
<p><strong>The World Championship Jamboree will proceed as scheduled.</strong></p><br />
<p><strong>However</strong>, the storm caused major damage in the NY/NJ area as well as the Washington DC area. This may affect your flights to Boston if you were scheduled to connect through any airports in those cities. We advise that you monitor your flight schedules and get in touch with your airline for updates.</p><br />

Through the Autodesk student community, we are providing iGEM teams with Autodesk Maya®, and virtually all other Autodesk software, to help animate and visualize their projects in 3D.</p><br />
<p>This year Autodesk would like to learn more about how the iGEM teams are benefiting from out product offering as well as things that we can improve for the future. Please, take 10 short minutes to complete this quick survey by clicking on this link: <a href="http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/AutodeskLifeScienceSurvey">Autodesk Life Science Survey</a>.</p><br />
