iPeer Workshop – facilitating student peer evaluation with ease

Date: 
Wednesday, 8 March, 2017 - 12:30 to 14:00

iPeer is a web-based solution that facilitates student peer- and self-evaluation of group projects. It supports four types of evaluations, namely Point Distribution, Rating Scale, Rubric and Commendation. The web-based application provides a paperless solution for teaching staff to conduct student peer evaluation on group projects in a more efficient and effective way.

If peer evaluation forms a part of your assessment of student group projects, or you are thinking about including a peer evaluation to your assessment, then you need to hear more about iPeer. Join our workshop to explore its potential.

The workshop will cover:

  • reasons for using student peer evaluation,

  • key features in iPeer,

  • workflow and steps for conducting student peer evaluation in iPeer; and

  • the integration between iPeer and Canvas
