Conducting Labs Sessions Online with Peer Assessment

Professor Chow-Fraser uses Kritik to conduct weekly lab sessions with her students. The students are able to work independently and in groups and submit their lab work, but the learning of the material takes place in the Kritik evaluations and feedback. Students are able to see how their peers responded to the same tasks in the lab, compare their work processes and develop their evaluative skills.
