What other teachers are saying...

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "My journalism students requested more opportunities for peer feedback before we published our monthly newspaper. They specifically wanted to know if others enjoyed their articles. This fit the bill perfectly!" -Emily Y.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "This resource helped me build in a systematic way for students to review their work and provide feedback. I was looking for something that I could plug in easily." -Robin Y.

What does good peer feedback look like?

Effective peer feedback is:

• Formative (not summative)
• Actionable
• Relevant

1. Formative: After a good peer feedback session, writers or presenters have the opportunity to revise their work to integrate peer feedback.

Use peer feedback for the drafting process of writing. For presenting, consider using peer feedback in small groups before presenters show their work to the entire class. That way, they can implement their peers’ feedback on the same project and get actual results. When I set students up to give TAG feedback in a Writer’s Workshop, writers revise their work after this session.

2. Actionable: Good feedback should be attainable for the creator. For example, let’s say a writer needs more supporting evidence in a research paper. It’s overwhelming to imagine revising an entire paper in this manner! Instead, students can identify one or two paragraphs that they can improve with a specific action step.

3. Relevant: Students are humans, and they don’t want to waste their time. They know some revisions are going to have a bigger impact than others. Help your feedback givers identify the most impactful opportunities for revision.
