4. Appraisers are expected to write brief, positive comments on sticky, Post-it® type notes for each team. These notes are then attached to the team's copy of the Master Score Sheet or to a sheet specifically created for Post-it notes and returned to the team, with the scores for their Presentation. The sticky notes are an important part of Appraiser feedback for teams; to most young people, words are often more meaningful and rewarding than score numbers. Appraisers must do their best, through their sticky notes, to let the teams know that the Appraisers were watching their Presentation closely and that they appreciate the team's effort.
