Organic Peer Assessment

We are developing tools and techniques for organic peer assessment, an approach where assessment occurs as a side effect of students performing activities, which they find intrinsically motivating. Our preliminary results, obtained in the context of a flipped classroom, show that the quality of the summative assessment produced by the peers matched that of experts, and we encountered strong evidence that our peer assessment implementation had positive effects on achievement.
