iPeer

iPeer is a Canvas-integrated web application that allows instructors to develop and deliver rubric-based peer evaluations. Instructors have the option of showing students the feedback they got from their peers and also taking this feedback and turning it into participation marks or grades.

How Does it Work?

Students complete peer evaluations to provide feedback through rubrics and comments. We have a large library of pre-made templates to choose from or you can create your own.

The iPeer coefficient alters a student’s mark based on the student’s contribution to their group. If a student received evaluations from their peers that were 10% above the average, that student’s grade on the assignment or project will be increased by up to 10%. This provides a corrective effect for good students who are placed in a poor-performing group as well as for poor students who are attempting to let their group do all the work.
