Group Peer Review as an Active Learning Strategy in a Research Course
Odom, Sue; Glenn, Betty; Sanner, Susan; Cannella, Kathleen A. S.
International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, v21 n1 p108-117 2009
The faculty of an undergraduate research course with a diverse student body recognized that many students struggled with the concept of how to critique a research article. The traditional assignment method used to teach the critique process did not maximize student learning outcomes. The active learning strategy of peer review was used to enhance student understanding and engagement in the critique process. This active learning strategy involved small groups of students who worked together as a team to evaluate the work of other student groups using a critique-rubric. This article describes the development and incorporation of a peer review activity into an undergraduate research course.
