How To Crowdsource Grading | HASTAC - 0 views

  • they can now also read all the class blogs (as they used to) and pass judgment on whether the blogs posted by their fellow students  are satisfactory. Thumbs up, thumbs down.   If not, any student who wishes can revise. If you revise, you get the credit.  End of story.  Or, if you are too busy and want to skip it, no problem.  It just means you'll have fewer ticks on the chart and will probably get the lower grade.  No whining.  It's clearcut and everyone knows the system from day one.  (btw, every study of peer review among students shows that students perform at a higher level, and with more care, when they know they are being evaluated by their peers than when they know only the teacher and the TA will be grading).

More Colleges Are Using "clickers" - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  •  
    "clickers," palm-size, wireless devices that look like a TV remote. They then use the numbered buttons on the devices to answer multiple-choice quizzes that count for nearly 20 percent of their grade, and that always begin precisely one minute into class. Later, with a click, they can signal to their teacher without raising a hand that they are confused by the day's lesson.
