The implementation of peer assessment is consequently a challenging task in the current context. This work investigates peer…

Though online peer assessment is recognized as a critical factor in enhancing learning performance, pedagogical strategies and analysis of students' peer assessment at the group level, rather than the individual level, are underexplored. Online group assessment (OGA) focuses on assessing peer-group work in an online environment. A total of 64…

Learning activities, which blend digital storytelling with peer assessment, foster the development of crucial digital skills. They require students to engage in writing, information gathering, utilizing technology tools, synthesizing information, and providing constructive feedback on their peers' work. This study developed and used digital…

The Sense of Community, as an important construct that supports students' participation and deep learning, has two dimensions: Social Community and Learning Community. Peer feedback is an instructional strategy employed in higher education to encourage students to assume an active role in their learning activity. The present study investigates the…

Depending on the nature of comments made during peer review of academic writing, students may be able to evaluate and revise their performance. Therefore, it is essential to explore how the content of comments affects student writing. Since peer review is a process of interaction, it is critical to understand how comments affect student academic…

This study adopted a framework based on social cognitive theory to explore the influence of thinking styles on critical thinking and multiple mediation effects of student assessors' assessment performance (scoring and review comments) between them. Samples were 97 graduate students enrolled in the "Seminar" course at a university.…

This study presents a learning-oriented assessment experience and examines the impact of communication and relationships on student satisfaction and on the acceptance of self- and peer-assessment.

Authentic context is a physical environment reflecting the knowledge application in the real world. In this study, we developed a tablet-based application, Ubiquitous Fraction (U-Fraction), to help fractions learning with authentic contextual support. Three topics were designed to learn fractions concept, fractions simplification, and fractions…

The students' assessment regarding collaborative learning and workgroups is being reported as one of the main concerns in higher education. The increased technological evolution leads to adapting novel self and peer assessment methods to e-assessment. This paper reports the results of a study to evaluate students' opinion about their experience…

Existing studies have measured the effect of video-based feedback on student performance or satisfaction. Other issues are underacknowledged or merit further investigation. These include sociocultural aspects which may shape the design and implementation of video-based feedback, the ways students use technology to engage in feedback, and the…

We present the first systematic review of the use of gamification in educational peer review activities. The goal of this work is to understand how gamification has been used to engage students in peer review activities and to summarize the empirical evidence for its effectiveness. Our main contribution is the presentation of a general model of…

Automated Writing Evaluation (AWE) is one of the machine techniques used for assessing learners' writing. Recently, this technique has been widely implemented for improving learners' editing strategies. Several studies have been conducted to compare self-editing with peer editing. However, only a few studies have compared automated peer and…

Peer assessment has an important role in teaching and learning nowadays. However, the existing techniques tend to be limited due to a lack of a suitable means to evaluate the accuracy of peer assessment activities and supervise peer assessment performances in an online environment. Hence, it is very necessary to develop new solutions encourage…

We know little to what extent peer feedback strategies can be applied on a large scale in higher education for complex tasks. This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate an online-supported peer feedback module for large-scale use to enhance higher education students' argumentative essay writing performance. To do this, 330 students from…
