Peer-assessment of Homework Using Rubrics

Sahana Murthy, Leon Hsu, Charles Henderson, Laura McCullough

Abstract

I have implemented a peer‐assessment system in an introductory physics course, where students assess each other's homework. Students are provided with descriptive rubrics to guide them through the process. In this paper I describe the implementation of the peer‐assessment process, discuss the role of rubrics, present data of agreement of students' assessment with the instructor's, and show evidence of student improvement in evaluation abilities.
