EdTech: Using technology to improve Peer Assessment
Peer assessment happens when learners find inspiration and insight in the ideas, suggestions, criticisms, contributions and thoughts of other learners, relative to their own contributions. As a result, learners can refine actions, comments and contributions to make their own learning and work demonstrate deeper learning.
Aim
How technology can deepen learning by facilitating high quality peer assessment and reflection.
Objective
After completing this module, you will be able to:
- Adopt suitable technology to support peer assessment by learners
- Appraise the process, learner experience and outcomes
