‘Just enough to make you take it seriously’: exploring students’ attitudes towards peer assessment

Abstract: The use of peer learning and peer assessment has gained increasing interest in higher education driven by both its educational value and by its ability to provide students with the opportunity to develop important transferrable skills. This paper reports on the use of peer learning and peer assessment with a cohort of four-year undergraduate physiotherapy students and an eighteen month taught post-graduate teacher education programme. The study observed the students' engagement in the process, surveyed their o… Show more

“…Cho et al (2006) considered the number of student graders to be a key factor for reliability as the consistency of student-assigned scores can be significantly improved with the introduction of more graders. On the other hand, factors such as subject domain, course level, and student attitude were found to have limited impact on peer grading validity and reliability (Falchikov & Goldfinch, 2000;McGarr & Clifford, 2013). In summary, research findings in general support the legitimacy of peer grading and have identified a list of factors that might affect its reliability and validity.…”

“…Students who know that there will be no effect of the points they give to their peers act unwillingly during evaluation. In a research carried out by McGarr (2013), it is indicated that as a result of not adding the peer points to the general average leads to not taking the process seriously. The decision on not involving the peer assessment grades in final grades is made together with the peers at the beginning of the research.…”

“…Nyckelord: kamratrespons, formativt lärande, feedback, pedagogiska vinster, lärarutbildning inledning Kamratrespons är en metod som förekommer allt oftare i högre utbildning (Hanrahan & Isaacs, 2001;McGarr & Clifford, 2013;Snowball & Mostert 2013;Topping, 2005). Motiven för att använda sig av denna typ av formativa tekniker kan uttryckas som att de förutom att vara kostnadseffektiva, då de placerar traditionella läraruppgifter i händerna på studenter, också kan bidra till pedagogiska vinster.…”

“…Kamratrespons används ofta i högre utbildning med motiveringen att det är ett kostnadseffektivt verktyg som kan ge pedagogiska vinster. Genom att analysera formativa råd och motiveringar i ett antal responstexter skrivna av studenter som går sin första termin på lärarpro-grammet, studeras vilka pedagogiska vinster som möjliggörs och vad det är som villkorar att dessa möjliga vinster kan nås.Nyckelord: kamratrespons, formativt lärande, feedback, pedagogiska vinster, lärarutbildning inledning Kamratrespons är en metod som förekommer allt oftare i högre utbildning (Hanrahan & Isaacs, 2001;McGarr & Clifford, 2013;Snowball & Mostert 2013;Topping, 2005).
