  1. Self and Peer Assessment ToolBlackboard Lesley Drumm

  2. Overview • Why peer assess? • Using the Self and Peer Assessment Tool in Blackboard • Problems and issues

  3. Why use peer assessment? • Marking of cv and covering letters • A new approach • Peer marking to get students to look at other students’ cvs from an employer’s perspective – to put themselves in the shoes of an employer

  4. Setting the system up • See attached notes • demo

  5. Issues setting up the system • Complicated interface: • Peer Assessment upload (where the questions and answers go) • Control Panel, Course Tools, Self and Peer Assessment (to check who has uploaded/evaluated) • Drop down icon which only appears on rollover • Grade centre (where peer grades are sent so students can access feedback via My Grades)

  6. Issues using the system • 2 students said they couldn’t upload to peer assessment (maybe they left it too late) ??? • System allocates people to people not work to work • BIG PROBLEM if a student doesn’t submit • Solution – copy student work from BB and allocate to students for evaluation via email (time consuming)

  7. Grading • Students in general graded too high – even though criteria were given • I graded based upon their evaluations rather than submitted work – set up another column in grade centre

  8. Student Feedback Comments that: • They liked seeing other students’ work • Some students didn’t anonymise their work – this caused issues with some markers • They learned something about their own work from marking others • Student were ok with the fact that their work was marked by others but their grade was for their evaluations.

  9. Conclusion The idea worked well but the tool could have been better had it assigned work to people rather than people to people.
