Example

Pedagogical Description

Tool

Example

  • Students peer assess each others draft reports/essays before the final submission.
  • Students upload videos of their work for peers to review (and grade)

Pedagogical Description

Peer review enables instructors to create assignments for students to provide feedback to their peers on deliverables like documents or videos based on predefined criteria.

Tool

Peer Review

Example

  • Students can better process study material or scientific articles by priming on specific topics
  • Students annotate a mockup essay to develop writing skills

Pedagogical Description

The teacher shares the study material and indicates which topics students are to focus on. While reading the text or watching the video, students will link aspects of the material to these topics, thereby allowing a better understanding of the content.

Tool

Comprehension

Example

  • Students give feedback on their peers collaboration skills during a group project
  • Personalising group grades based on individual contributions to group work

Pedagogical Description

The tool streamlines how students assess their peers collaboration skills. The teacher specifies the criteria students use to evaluate their peers contributions to group work.

Tool

Group Member Evaluation

Example

  • Students add discussion topics on study material
  • Students answer practice questions on a video
  • Students listen to the audio or read the document, answer the annotated questions and prompts and start a discussion and question by annotating a specific part of the audio or document

Pedagogical Description

These tools support the flipping the classroom method. Teachers can share media sources (audio, document, video) for students to discuss, answer practice questions and/or collaborate on discussion topics.
