Designing Assignments for Peer Grading in Introductory Courses

In using peer grading, the design of assignments needs to consider both how it fits with the course objectives, and what elements can reinforce learning when grades by peers.

Sign up for this webinar with Prof. Mary-Helen Armour from York University who uses Kritik for peer grading in her 200+ first-year science courses. She will be taking us through examples of assignments that she created with a focus on how the assignment design reflects on how she can guide students to using peer grading as a learning experience that helps with better content retention.

What to expect:

• Enhancing Assignment Design with Peer Grading
• Peer Grading Rubrics to Guide Students
• Benefits of Peer Grading
• Why Kritik?
• Examples of Assignments & Rubrics from Prof. Armour’s course
