Author(s): Dennis Sun*

Keywords: peer assessment ; grading ; teaching
Abstract:

Peer assessment is the practice of having students grade one another. This has the obvious advantage of saving instructors time grading. But does it "work"? And how should it be implemented? This talk reviews the literature on peer assessment and discusses practical suggestions for its implementation in statistics classrooms.

Authors who are presenting talks have a * after their name.
