Peer feedback happens when students or peers provide each other with feedback on their products, assignments, or work. Peer feedback can be facilitated individually or in groups, privately or publicly, and can be a part of a mandatory assignment or voluntary. Facilitating peer feedback can be difficult, and it’s therefore important that you plan and design your peer feedback activity carefully – it might also take some iterations because it works exactly how you planned, but it will be worth the while. Research shows that providing and receiving feedback has a significant impact on student learning since being exposed to other ways of approaching problems and verbalizing any misconceptions or critical issues can increase each students’ understanding and comprehension of content.
