Abstract:
Classroom group projects are an important teaching method used to prepare students for the workplace. The "fair" evaluation of these projects is often difficult due to the varying contributions of group members. Student peer review can be used as both an evaluation measure and as a positive tool for building group commitment. This study reviews concepts of group management and evaluation and compares two classroom peer review experiences. A key conclusion is that student-constructed criteria and an emphasis on observable behavior are crucial to the successful classroom use of peer review.
