The diversity of articles and variable results prevent definitive conclusions about the value of SCs. Findings suggest several implications for future SC program evaluations and educational research. The authors advocate increased rigor in evaluation designs to demonstrate SCs' true impact.
Our findings suggest that it is possible to introduce peer assessment for formative purposes in an undergraduate medical school programme that provides multiple opportunities to interact with and observe peers.
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.
