PURPOSE Peer assessment is a valuable source of information about medical students' professionalism. How best to facilitate peer assessment of students' professional behavior remains to be answered, however. This report extends previous research through a multi-institutional study of students' perspectives about system characteristics for peer assessment of professionalism. It examines whether ...

Peer-assessment is a way to include evaluation as a part of the learning process and simultaneously to cut teacher load in grading of assignments. eLearning systems can be used to automate peer-assessment to a large extent. Peer-assessment benefits from multiplepeer-assessment as it is likely to even-out outliers. Linguistic scorecards can be used to simplify assessment. The linguistic scales c...

Using self-and peer-assessment to enhance students' future-learning in higher education. In higher education settings, assessment tasks get the attention of students, but once students submit their work they typically become disengaged with the assessment process. Hence, opportunities for learning are lost as they become passive recipients of assessment outcomes. Future-learning oriented assess...

Online peer assessment has been advocated by numerous contemporary educators. This study interviewed forty students who had experienced an online peer assessment activity for learning. Each of these students was asked to complete a research proposal in an educational method course for peer assessment. Using the online peer assessment system, the students, who performed the roles of both authors...

We study relationship between peer assessment of quality of U.S. Computer Science (CS) doctoral programs and objective measures of research strength of those programs. In Fall 2016 we collected Google Scholar citation data for 4,352 tenure-track CS faculty from 173 U.S. universities. The citations are measured by the t10 index, which represents the number of citations received by the 10th highe...

We present the research framework for a taxonomy of online educational peer-assessment systems. This framework enables researchers in technology-supported peer assessment to understand the current landscape of technologies supporting student peer review and assessment, specifically, its affordances and constraints. The framework helps identify the major themes in existing and potential research...

Peer assessment is a method of motivating students in learning computer programming, involving students marking and providing feedback on other students’ work. This paper reports on the design and implementation of a novel web-based peer assessment system, and discusses its deployment on a large programming module. The results indicate that this peer assessment system has successfully helped st...
