Title of Talk | Facilitating Peer Feedback in an Online Course |
Abstract | When adapting a face-to-face course to an online format, many of our usual course activities are difficult to implement. In an introductory quantitative reasoning course, writing assignments with peer feedback were an essential part of the face-to-face course. When adapting this course to an online version, keeping the spirit of these assignments was a primary goal. An online question and answer platform, Piazza, was used for asynchronous peer feedback on writing assignments for the online version. In this context, we will discuss some benefits and drawbacks of this format and tool along with future refinements. |
