Laura and
all,
We conduct
three peer feedback sessions during a semester. They consist of 12 scaled
response and 2 open ended questions (1. I like that you ..because & 2. I
wish that you would…because). The responses are anonymous, if the
student providing the feedback wishes them to be so. The feedback is
collected on a web based program. Each student receives a report
showing the distribution of and aggregate ratings they received, and the
responses to the open ended questions. and is shared with the students

Subject: peer evaluation practices
Hello everyone -
I’m curious about the peer evaluation procedures you use. Would you take
a few moments to respond to the following “straw poll?” In
addition, please feel free to send any thoughts or comments about peer
evaluations.
In the spirit of sharing, I tell you my answers to the above questions. I teach
undergraduates in large-enrollment sections (N=140) of Introduction to
Psychology. In the past, I’ve collected peer evaluations at the end of
the term using survey items rated on a 1-to-7 scale and I haven’t shared
peer evaluations with students (unless they asked about their final grade).
This semester, I’m experimenting with collecting open-ended comments
after each team activity and sharing those formative comments with students.
Its too early in the semester to determine the effect of the new peer
evaluation procedure but the change got me wondering about the variety of peer
evaluation procedures used by other TBL folks.
Many thanks for your thoughts and time!
