Peer Grading verse Peer Feedback
Peer grading helps increase student performance on written exams and decrease failure rates in courses. Where peer feedback, together with the required revision, is a process-approach of writing within the classroom and is still yet undetermined if it improves a students writing.
Effects of Peer Feedback on Assessors and Students
This is beneficial to both the assessor and student, as the teacher can evaluate the work of a student, which will show them what the student knows and what improvement is needed. It is beneficial to the student as they can see what needs more attention and where their strong points are.
My Pedagogy
I believe that both peer grading and peer feedback should be given, however in saying that, peer grading should be given by the teacher and only to the parent and student in private to minimise the bulling in the classroom. When a student receives good feedback it helps with their future studies and students will gain more confidence in their work.
