Abstract:
Students participating in cooperative study groups and making peer reviews of team members' term projects reported high satisfaction with the peer review process used in two courses offered in different disciplines - animal science and textiles and clothing. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors were grouped into three or four-member teams, and were given several opportunities to work together in laboratories, lectures, and out of class when preparing for exams and when writing their term projects. Approximately 90% of the students indicated the peer review process was helpful and resulted in a better paper than they would have prepared without peer review.
