Original Ideas are good

=======================

Past experience has shown that if a student proposes their own idea and it
is accepted the student is going to be strong.

PROPOSAL
--------

Add the following to the mentor ranking:

Is the project definition and idea originally the mentee's, the
mentor's or a collaborative effort? (0-2 points, 2 if mentee's idea, 1
if collaborative, 0 if mentor's)

I am still not such a big fan of the "original idea" points in a standards
base product

OK, the idea is same as before (my comment on standards elsewhere in
the thread):

and marking down for collaboration where we want to encourage
interaction with the community.

Yes, I can see how the wording can be perceived that way so it does
need tweaking.

I'm with Kathey on this one. I think we need a wording that emphases the students contributions to the idea as a whole. That is whether the idea comes from the community or the student is not relevant, what is relevant is whether the student shows originality in expanding the idea into a complete proposal.

I'm sure you can come up with some suitable wording.
