A Flexible New Teaching Technology for Facilitating Peer Evaluation: The ComPAIR Project at UBC

Event Start:
2018-10-18T12:45:00
Event End:
2018-10-18T13:45:00
Event Information:

We introduce ComPAIR, an open source, peer feedback and teaching technology developed at UBC that provides students a safe, flexible environment to develop the skill of evaluating another person’s work, and in turn, receive evaluations from their peers. ComPAIR is currently being used by about 40 courses here at UBC and has been installed at three external institutions. Particularly in introductory courses, the effectiveness of peer feedback can be limited by the relative newness of students to both the course content and the skills involved in providing good feedback.
