    • Insufficient evidence

      • Peer assessment is increasingly used in schools and higher education, especially in health education. However, there remains insufficient evidence that peer assessment conditions are beneficial for teacher education.

    • Statistical Analyses of Effect Sizes

    The specific methods of peer assessment can vary considerably, but there are a number of shared characteristics across most methods. Peers are defined as individuals at similar (i.e., within 1–2 grades) or identical education levels. Peer assessment must involve assessing or being assessed by peers, or both. Peer assessment requires the communicati...

    To be included in this meta-analysis, studies had to meet several criteria. Firstly, a study needed to examine the effect of peer assessment. Secondly, the assessment could be delivered in any form (e.g., written, verbal, online), but needed to be distinguishable from peer-coaching/peer-tutoring. Thirdly, a study needed to compare the effect of pee...

    The literature search was carried out on 8 June 2018 using PsycInfo, Google Scholar, and ERIC. Google Scholar was used to check for additional references as it does not allow for the exporting of entries. These three electronic databases were selected due to their relevance to educational instruction and practice. Results were not filtered based on...

    A research assistant and the first author extracted data from the included papers. We took an iterative approach to the coding procedure whereby the coders refined the classification of each variable as they progressed through the included studies to ensure that the classifications best characterised the extant literature. Below, the coding strateg...

    Effect Size Estimation and Heterogeneity

    A random effects, multi-level meta-analysis was carried out using R version 3.4.3 (R Core Team 2017). The primary outcome was standardised mean difference between peer assessment and comparison (i.e., control) conditions. A common effect size metric, Hedge’s g, was calculated. A positive Hedge’s g value indicates comparatively higher values in the dependent variable in the peer assessment group (i.e., higher academic performance). Heterogeneity in the effect sizes was estimated using the I2 s...

    Robust Variance Estimation

    Often meta-analyses include multiple effect sizes from the same sample (e.g., the effect of peer assessment on two different measures of academic performance). Including these dependent effect sizes in a meta-analysis can be problematic, as this can potentially bias the results of the analysis in favour of studies that have more effect sizes. Recently, Robust Variance Estimation (RVE) was developed as a technique to address such concerns (Hedges et al. 2010). RVE allows for the modelling of d...

  3. Aug 15, 2021 · Peer assessment (PA) is generally effective, and especially important for school teachers, as the experience might lead teachers to use PA more skilfully with school students. Digital PA (using computers) becomes more important as universities switch to online learning.

  4. Sep 8, 2023 · Our findings reveal four mechanisms of peer assessment assigned value in PETE: (i) building social relations, (ii) making ‘what to learn’ visible, (iii) giving correct feedback, and (iv) handling sensitive and gendered comments.

  5. Peer assessment (PA) is employed as one fundamental practice of classroom-based assessment in terms of its learning-oriented and formative nature. The exercise of peer assessment has multiple and additional benefits for student learning.

  6. Jul 1, 2023 · Peer assessment involves a summative approach and grading form where learners evaluate and grade each other. In contrast, peer review and peer feedback shared similar connotations towards a formative approach where learners overview their peers’ work to provide suggestions for revision, thus accomplishing peer scaffolding (van den Bos & Tan, 2019).

  7. This report investigates the use of peer assessment in teacher education and training scenarios. It offers a review of existing research on the topic as well as a set of implementation guidelines that should help policy makers and teacher trainers to understand the potential of peer assessment in teacher education
