Portfolio Peer Assessment
First Principles
- Be honest and accurate.
- Be as specific and detailed as possible.
- Take good notes.
- Take this seriously.
This is only as useful as you make it.
- Part 1: Read and Assess Groupmates' Portfolios
- Part 2: Share and Discuss Your Assessment
Part 1 - Assessing
Note: Part 1 is done individually, without discussion. We will discuss our assessments in Part 2.
With a groupmate's Portfolio:
- Write the writer's name on top of your Rubric
- Read through the Portfolio
- Fill out the Rubric. For each outcome,
- Check off each box that you see demonstrated in the Portfolio
- In the "Comment" box, write your reasoning and evidence for each checkbox
- Answer the overall question "Yes" or "No."
Part 2 - Discussing
For each Portfolio in turn:
- For each Outcome on the Rubric, compare answers between assessors.
- Discuss the reasons you said yes or no, including specific examples.
- The writer may ask questions and take notes, but not explain or justify. (Either explain in your Reflective Essay, or make things clearer in your Portfolio.)
