Abstract

In this paper we investigate how peer evaluation mechanisms may promote assessment in a project-based context. In particular, we present a research conducted to investigate the effectiveness of peer evaluation tasks in the web-based broject-based educational system named MyProject. Moreover, students’ satisfaction in accomplishing peer review and assessment tasks was evaluated. In MyProject, two forms of peer evaluation have been incorporated stimulating students (a) to read and review their peers’ ideas or answers to assessment questions, through the accomplishment of the project, (b) after they submit their solutions to the project, to act as reviewers and evaluate their peers’ project. We identified different types of errors in students’ project deliverables. The data analysis provide evidence about the positive influence of the peer assessment method in students’ improvement and the potential of the peer review tasks in promoting students’ collaboration.
