peer marking of group work in blackboard

Many staff members are interested in providing a quick and fair method that allows students within a group to allocate a mark to each other’s effort. WEBPA is a great tool for doing this, but we don’t have this. So here is a ‘get around’. It takes a little bit of setting up, but could save some time.

1.       Set up your groups – see here for details Groups (Batch Allocate)
How to break large cohorts into smaller groups

Create a test for each member of the group to mark the other student by. This will collect the scores. Tell each student which student in their group relates to which test. http://screenr.com/Nsm

Student name

Student reference

Robin hood

Student A

John Little

Student B

Marion Maid

Student C

So it looks like this

Once the data has been collated you need to download it from the grade centre and change the columns to rows, then upload it back into the gradecentre

Here are some video guides to give you more detail.
