我能使用它吗?
You can use iPeer to help you assess and improve student group work in a variety of ways:
- Create custom criteria to guide students in evaluating one another and, optionally, themselves
- Use the evaluation outcomes formatively, by sharing the anonymized feedback with each evaluated student
- 总结说明结果,以告知您的分发组标记
What do I need to use iPeer?
An iPeer account
你需要request an iPeer account from usfirst.
A supported web browser
iPeer runs in your web browser and supports using Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari.
A Canvas course
Ipeer只与UBC的帆布课程合作。
Tips
- Students will not need to contact anyone to create an iPeer account那as their accounts will automatically be made when you link your Canvas course to an iPeer course.
What should I consider before using iPeer?
Before you dive in, it’s best to establish your evaluation approach from a pedagogical perspective. This includes determining how you will use peer evaluations, how often you will run evaluations, and how they will relate to grades. Answer to these questions will guide you in the right direction as you set up iPeer.
点击any bar below to explore considerations for iPeer.
Consider the overall goals of your peer evaluation
Once you decide to use peer evaluation in a group assignment, consider the following:
- What are you hoping to achieve with the peer evaluations? The self evaluations?
- In light of your goals, what assessment criteria (e.g., rubrics) will be best for students to evaluate contributions of each group member?
- When will you ask students to complete peer evaluations: in the middle, at the end of the group assignment, or both?
- Should the peer evaluation scores count towards the group assignment grade? If so, to what extent?
- Should you share the results of peer evaluation with students, and if so, to what extent: sharing grades, sharing feedback, or both?
Your answers should relate to the goals of the group assignment. For example, if developing teamwork skills is an important goal, you could plan on using peer evaluations multiple times during the assignment, so students will learn how they are doing and have a chance to improve.
Tips
- You may find theUBC-developed Student Peer Assessment Planning Guide乐于助人in making and tracking these decisions.
Develop your peer evaluation criteria
IPEER提供三种类型的同行评估,以便在开发标准时考虑:
- 简单的评估:学生通过分发您在成员之间的点(例如,100)分发的点数来评估小组成员。这种方法提供了一个非常简单的评估,将为您提供组动态的高级思想。
- Rubrics Evaluations:学生根据您设置的特定标准评估小组成员,类似于多项选择问卷。此方法将根据您提出的问题提供有关每个群组成员的更多具体和详细信息。
- Mixed Evaluations: Students evaluate group members using a combination of short answer and rubric questions. This approach gives the highest degree of customization and therefore is suitable to evaluations that require more nuance and open response.
Tips
- 始终鼓励学生证明他们的评估证明并提供建设性的反馈作为过程的一部分,无论您选择哪种方法。
- 您可以涉及学生在创作标准中,因此他们更好地了解预期的内容as a contributing group member. For example, at the beginning of a group project, share a rubric you are considering with students and invite their constructive feedback.
Decide on the timing of your peer evaluation(s)
If you plan to use evaluations formatively in the course, meaning results will be shared with you and with the students, it's best to have multiple peer evaluations during the group assignment, perhaps at the midway point and at the end. That will let students know how they are doing and give them a chance to improve based on the peer feedback received.
However, it is also important to consider the possible implications on group dynamics of sharing negative feedback and be prepared to support students in pivoting in a positive manner.
If you plan to use evaluations summatively in the course, time the evaluation near the end of the group assignment, once all the major activities are complete. That will let students evaluate the overall participation and contribution of peers and help you apply the outcomes towards grading, if you choose.
Tips
- 在iPeer中,您可以发布对等级,对等级反馈或两者so that students can check how their group members evaluated their contributions.
- 如果您决定发布反馈,您可以查看首先提交的学生那and hold back any disrespectful comments, if you choose.
Choose how outcomes will influence grades
If the evaluations will influence grades, you should communicate to students in the beginning how exactly the peer marks will be counted, so students are not caught off-guard.
如果您决定计算评分的对等评估,请询问以下内容:
- 您将如何检查同行评估以确保公平性和准确性?当标记在线时,学生有时可能会尝试以夸张的评论(好坏)影响它们。
- Will you assign marks for completing the peer evaluations? This strategy can help increase response rates.
- Would you prefer to use the peer evaluations as a reference for the final mark or use it to impact the mark directly? If using it directly, what grading calculation will best fit for your course? Typically, peer evaluations count for a small percentage (e.g. 5-25%) of a group assignment1,与您分配标记的其余部分。
- Will students' self-evaluations count toward grades? Generally, self-evaluations are not the most accurate and are best left out of the calculation.
如何使用ipeer?

- Rubrics Evaluations:学生根据您设置的特定标准评估小组成员,类似于多项选择问卷。此方法将根据您提出的问题提供有关每个群组成员的更多具体和详细信息。
- Mixed Evaluations: Students evaluate group members using a combination of short answer and rubric questions. This approach gives the highest degree of customization and therefore is suitable to evaluations that require more nuance and open response.
- In the drop-down menu underneath the type, select which specific评估you will use, either the one you created when you made your own criteria (see the section above for how to do this) or any of the existing ones from other courses and instructors.
- 点击Previewto see what any template will look like.
- 填写表格的其余部分,然后单击提交。
- Students will be able to fill out their evaluations during the dates you set.
Tips
- 创建评估后,一个重要的下一步是与学生沟通为什么您正在使用ipeer。Let students know that evaluations can foster better teamwork within their groups and help them become more familiar and comfortable with assessment and evaluation practices.
- Tell students how peer evaluations will factor into grades那if you are using evaluations this way, and stress how evaluations can promote accountability and fairer grading for group work.
- You can edit any existing evaluation event那by clicking the "List Evaluation Events" link on the iPeer course homepage. Click the title of the event, and scroll down to the bottom of the page to find the edit button.
Review and release iPeer evaluation outcomes
- 登录iPeer,然后单击Coursesin the top navigation.

- 点击释放所有评论orRelease All Gradesto manually share these results with students. In either case, students will receive their group's comments or grades anonymously, so they will not know who provided what feedback.
Tips
- You can also export outcomes from this pageas a spreadsheet, if you'd rather work with or distribute the data offline.
- Results can be released automatically to students, if you prefer那by enabling the "Auto-Release Results" option and setting the "Results Released From" date, when you create or edit the evaluation event.
Use iPeer grades in Canvas
如果你想使用评估结果s grades, you can send them to Canvas by either syncing iPeer grades directly with Canvas (best for situations requiring less customization) or exporting data from iPeer to upload manually to Canvas (best for situations requiring more customization).
Sync iPeer grades with Canvas
- 登录iPeer,然后单击Coursesin the top navigation.
- 点击thecourse title,以及在“评估事件”框中,单击列出评估事件。
