What was the teaching and learning problem?<\/strong><\/p>\n Students are required to submit their CV as part of the assessment for the unit. In face-face teaching we would ask the students to print out and bring their CVs into class. With these they would engage in some peer review of the CVs to provide feedback and also to encourage reflection which in turn should improve their own CVs.<\/p>\n With the move to blended delivery during Covid-19 we needed to find an alternative method of facilitating peer review.<\/p>\n How did you solve it?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n We used the PeerMark tool within Feedback Studio (formerly Turnitin). Students uploaded their own CVs as usual, and then an additional peer review assignment was created where students were required to review 1 other paper and provide feedback.<\/p>\n The following clarifies the instructions to students and the marking criteria applied.<\/p>\n Instructions to students <\/u><\/em><\/p>\n In preparation for your ASP applications and future Employability it is important that you consistently update and refine your Curriculum Vitae. Using the activities and discussion offered in week 3s class please update and submit your CV and upload it for review and feedback.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image _builder_version=”3.17.6″ src=”https:\/\/sites.manchester.ac.uk\/humteachlearn\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/205\/2021\/03\/peer-review-1.png” \/][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.17.6″]<\/p>\n We used a traffic light system of grading using the question tools within the PeerMark assignment tool.<\/p>\n Students submitted their CVs on the 5th<\/sup> of November 2020. The peer review then took place in the students\u2019 timetabled class on Monday the 9th<\/sup> of November between 9-11am. To support students conducting the peer review in class the following actions were completed;<\/p>\n The peer review took place during a synchronous session. Students used the Google Doc with screenshots to guide them through the peer review. All peer reviews were conducted anonymously. The peer review and comments were then released to students on the following day.<\/p>\n What issues did you not anticipate?\u00a0 How did you resolve them?<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_accordion _builder_version=”3.17.6″][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Evaluation \/ Student Feedback” open=”off” _builder_version=”3.17.6″ title_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” body_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” link_option_url_new_window=”off” use_background_color_gradient=”off” background_color_gradient_start=”#2b87da” background_color_gradient_end=”#29c4a9″ background_color_gradient_type=”linear” background_color_gradient_direction=”180deg” background_color_gradient_direction_radial=”center” background_color_gradient_start_position=”0%” background_color_gradient_end_position=”100%” background_color_gradient_overlays_image=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on” background_size=”cover” background_position=”center” background_repeat=”no-repeat” background_blend=”normal” allow_player_pause=”off” background_video_pause_outside_viewport=”on” text_shadow_style=”none” box_shadow_style=”none” hover_transition_duration=”300ms” hover_transition_delay=”0ms” hover_transition_speed_curve=”ease” text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em”]<\/p>\n Student 1 – I found it helpful to be able to have a look at other people’s work because it made me feel reassured that my work was of the same standard as others. This is good at the moment because you can sometimes feel a bit on your own so it is nice to be able to see what others are doing.<\/em><\/p>\n Student 2 – When I looked at my classmate’s CV, I realized that my CV was incomplete. I learned a few things that my peers did well and then applied them to m CV. At the same time, I pointed out the ways in which I had told my partner that we were different. I think this activity is very helpful for us to modify and improve our CV<\/em><\/p>\n Student 3 – Sharing work experience with peers are really meaningful and helpful, it not only give me opportunity to tell my story, but also let me share my point of view related to the job.<\/em><\/p>\n Student 4 – I found it more than useful to see what other people did, because sometimes it might be hard to determine what you want to do, or you might feel like you’re not good enough yet. It is really motivating to see that other students managed to secure interesting ASP’s.<\/em><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Benefits” open=”on” _builder_version=”3.17.6″ title_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” body_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” link_option_url_new_window=”off” use_background_color_gradient=”off” background_color_gradient_start=”#2b87da” background_color_gradient_end=”#29c4a9″ background_color_gradient_type=”linear” background_color_gradient_direction=”180deg” background_color_gradient_direction_radial=”center” background_color_gradient_start_position=”0%” background_color_gradient_end_position=”100%” background_color_gradient_overlays_image=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on” background_size=”cover” background_position=”center” background_repeat=”no-repeat” background_blend=”normal” allow_player_pause=”off” background_video_pause_outside_viewport=”on” text_shadow_style=”none” box_shadow_style=”none” hover_transition_duration=”300ms” hover_transition_delay=”0ms” hover_transition_speed_curve=”ease” text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em”]<\/p>\n Expected benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n Actual benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item title=”Top Tips” open=”on” _builder_version=”3.17.6″ title_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” body_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” link_option_url_new_window=”off” use_background_color_gradient=”off” background_color_gradient_start=”#2b87da” background_color_gradient_end=”#29c4a9″ background_color_gradient_type=”linear” background_color_gradient_direction=”180deg” background_color_gradient_direction_radial=”center” background_color_gradient_start_position=”0%” background_color_gradient_end_position=”100%” background_color_gradient_overlays_image=”off” parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on” background_size=”cover” background_position=”center” background_repeat=”no-repeat” background_blend=”normal” allow_player_pause=”off” background_video_pause_outside_viewport=”on” text_shadow_style=”none” box_shadow_style=”none” hover_transition_duration=”300ms” hover_transition_delay=”0ms” hover_transition_speed_curve=”ease” text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em”]<\/p>\n Make sure you consider the type of feedback you want students to give. PeerMark allows both free text and scaled question types. Scales are very useful for questions that ask how well something was achieved. Try to make the feedback scales\/marking criteria student friendly, like the traffic light system used in this example.<\/p>\n Regardless of the question type students will need some guidance on how to evaluate their peer\u2019s submissions. This can be discussed in a session prior to the evaluation or can become part of the peer review process itself.<\/p>\n Check that the peer review will work before the session or the time allocated for the peer review (like the check we did the Friday before).<\/p>\n Make sure you have time set aside after the session to be able to mark those submissions which have not been peer reviewed in class due to lower than expected attendance.<\/p>\n This peer review was a formative assessment. Caution is noted for any summative peer review as students could receive feedback and marks which might be more likely to be challenged. If using peer review for summative work the moderation process will also need to be more comprehensive for parity and fairness in the marks.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item _builder_version=”3.17.6″ title=”Other relevant info”]<\/p>\n The CV was already completed, this was not a new form of assignment. A two hour class had been delivered on CV format and presentation to the whole cohort in advance. Both of these points meant that students knew the expectations for a CV and that these expectations were all the same.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][et_pb_accordion_item _builder_version=”3.17.6″
