Hi, I'm preparing a candidature for a post as Associate Professor at the University of Aveiro. I have to choose among your publication 5 articles. This is one that I choose since it is the corollary of the project IPEC - Research and Practices in Science Education. That project aimed to increase the relationship between research and practice. From several theoretical approaches, we develop a model for the professional development of teachers. It was a very productive interactive project, that involved the collaboration between researchers and teachers to develop curricular modules being the subject of sustainability, for secondary schools. We would like to have feedback to reinforce your choice. All the comments are welcome. Article Using Peer Assessment for Promoting the Learning Process in ...
Using Peer Assessment is best way in the teaching as well as learning. It is more like two way process where students involve themselves in assessment as well as learning.
Maria João Loureiro. Congratulations on your published paper. There is no doubt that the topic is engaging. Peer-assessment is the basis to several scholarly activities including journal publication, application for grants and research funding, acceptance of a PhD thesis by the university, academic promotion, and several others. I think the abstract should clearly explain the four phases/stages. Also, it is not clear what the PhD students in their peer-assessment used as tasks. Were these students trained in critical evaluation and peer-assessment process? It will be great to see your views on how the concept of peer-assessment can be applied in the undergraduate curriculum to enhance student's learning.
congratulation Maria João Loureiro on your paper publication. Indeed it is topic of great interest for teachers which will eventually help them to involve their students in peer assessment, moreover, it will also motivate researchers to rely on their friends to go for peer review before going for the submission.
Thanks for your kind remarks on the paper. It's great to have positive feedback concerning our own work. The paper is in fact a reflection on the work carried out in a PhD course where students developed systematic literature reviews about a topic related to their research projects. That's why the methodology is design-based. Previously we have published other papers like the one available at - Article The quality of peer assessment in a wiki-based online contex...
were we presented the assessment framework to evaluate the quality of online PA for the first time. Answering your dought and questions, in particular to Professor Samy Azer, the phases of the design-based research approach are in the abstract (analyse, conceive, implement and evaluate). Maybe it should be more explicit. We will take your comment into consideration in further publications since the framework is used in other contexts, including undergraduate courses. From the studies carried out, we suggest that to increase the quality of peer-assessment, among others, the assessment frameworks must be negotiated (both the framework to assess the students' work and the one to assess the peer-assessment) and students should have opportunities to practice peer-assessment. The students' experiences concerning peer-assessment should aim not only to its improvement but also to change students' views on assessment, which often are negative and linked to summative assessment and certification. If you have any further questions, fill free to ask. Best regards
Dear!
I think that is very exactly. To promote the learning in class have to many elements which are enviroment, teacher, students, teaching method of teacher, learning method of students, Assessment of teacher, students, parents,...
