This paper aims to evaluate the benefits of peer assessment for the international student and recommend effective practices to engage international learners in feedback through peer reviews. The main research objectives are: 1. To investigate the strengths and challenges involved in peer assessment as a feedback strategy. 2. To evaluate the ...

Feb 2, 2007 · All the learners agreed that the peer feedback should be made a permanent feature of the program; they also highlighted that the main barriers in giving feedback were lack of experience and hesitation in critiquing peer’s work.

- 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...

Sep 12, 2021 · Making and receiving peer assessment may be a positive experience for some students while other students will not appreciate it. The present study contributes with insights into individual characteristics affecting how students will experience the practice of peer assessment.

Oct 2, 2023 · Peer feedback as an element of formative assessment supports more robust information for performance improvement from diverse perspectives than a single course instructor can provide alone. 9 A student's feedback orientation, defined as their openness to seek, take up, and use feedback to maximize learning outcomes and improve performance, is cr...
