  • BSc (Hons) Computing Science
  • Improving peer critique and assessment in team-based exercises

During the Computing Science Team Project module, each team is required to give feedback in order to establish the distribution of work (and the effectiveness of an individual’s input to the Project). As is, it is cumbersome to mark for the module leader, particularly if team members submit data individually. Conversely, if the review is conducted as a team, members are often too shy to give critical feedback face to face. My project is to build a tool that students can use to submit anonymous peer reviews. These will be available to both the module leader and the student.
