Peer Feedback for Teaching Communication Skills: Students' Experiences in a BSW Interviewing Skills Course
Journal of Teaching in Social Work, v44 n5 p568-577 2024
This teaching note describes the use of a pilot peer feedback assignment in an undergraduate BSW Interviewing Skills Course. Two cohorts of students over two years (n = 47) answered a brief questionnaire and/or participated in a small focus group inquiring about their experience of this assignment and its impact on their learning. Student reflections in the assignment were also reviewed to understand their experience. Three themes were identified: (a) giving peer feedback deepened student learning of specific communication skills; (b) receiving constructive feedback from peers strengthened elements of professionalism; and (c) the peer feedback process increased confidence in self-evaluation skills. Implications for changes to our teaching based on this experience are offered.
