How to Evaluate Projects
Once you have been approved as a jury member and completed your conflict declaration, you can begin evaluating your assigned projects.
Accessing the Evaluation Portal
- Log in to Pentas and go to your Jury Dashboard
- You will see a list of teams assigned to you for evaluation
- Click on a team to view their submission details and project files
Scoring with the Rubric
Each team is evaluated using a standardised rubric provided by the competition organiser. The rubric contains multiple criteria, each with:
- A description of what is being assessed
- A maximum score for that criterion
- An input field for you to enter your score
Review the team's submission materials thoroughly before assigning scores. You may also leave written comments for each criterion to justify your scores.
Submitting Your Scores
Once you have scored all criteria for a team, click Submit Scores. Submitted scores can be revised until the evaluation deadline, after which they are locked.
Best Practices
- Evaluate each team independently — do not compare them against each other while scoring
- Be consistent in how you apply the rubric across all teams
- If you are unsure about a conflict mid-evaluation, stop and contact the competition organiser immediately
