Peer feedback

Learners give one another criteria-based feedback on drafts and projects. Assessing other people’s work helps them understand quality criteria more deeply, and revision becomes the norm.

How the method works

  1. 1

    Agree on the criteria together (3 to 4 max.) and set feedback rules (“strength first, then a wish”).

  2. 2

    Exchange products; write feedback based on the criteria.

  3. 3

    Feedback conversation: explain the feedback and allow questions.

  4. 4

    Revision phase: authors decide with good reason what to incorporate.

Material

  • Feedback criteria
  • Sentence starters
  • Learning outcomes

You can find free, ready-made worksheets for the work phase in the TeachPie Marketplace , sorted by subject and grade, in three levels.

Common pitfalls in practice

  • Feedback needs specific criteria and time for revision

Variants

  • Feedback swap: Each product gets feedback from two different people.
  • Warm/cool feedback using the critique-round format, with a set language structure.
