A homework grading model is presented where students grade and correct their own homework, and they are evaluated on their own ability to subsequently grade and correct. It is well-known that a large percentage of students regularly consult online solution manuals when completing homework, and the homework model presented in this study seeks to adapt the incentive mechanisms to enhance utility of homework as a form of formative assessment while encouraging higher-order thinking and metacognition. An analysis of data collected from student-graded and instructor-graded homework is presented, as are survey results which suggest self-corrected homework encourages students to be more aware of their learning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
