1. What is peer assessment, and why do we use it at University of the People? In my understanding, peer review is a method that allows a certain work to be evaluated by someone else, and vice versa, and in this way, it helps students to get feedback on their work, if it needs improvement or if it is good. the way it was done, it also allows anyone who reads or studies this work to trust the document as it has been reviewed by someone else. Peer assessment not only helps the student's development during their school years, but also improves the quality of their work and improves the quality of evaluating someone else's work. We can say that this method is able to help us improve our learning. The Uopeople uses the peer assessment tool because it allows students to interact and learn with their peers and gives students the opportunity to build a strong network around the world (Uopeople, 2022). 2. What are the benefits of peer assessment? According to Uopeople (2022) “Peer learning and peer assessments are designed to give students skills that will prove helpful and necessary throughout their educational and professional careers”. In my opinion, the benefits of peer review are that we can develop our critical thinking and develop our own knowledge when reviewing other work. Also allow us to trust works that have been carried out using this method since we know that we know that it is not just an opinion expressed there, but that it was analyzed by another person who has the same technical and theoretical knowledge. 3. What are the challenges of giving peer feedback in peer assessment? In my understanding, the challenges of giving feedback to someone else's work is that sometimes we think we are not qualified enough in a certain subject to evaluate another candidate, or our opinions are so different that we can judge that thought as wrong. , and not being totally fair.

Especially because each person has their own way of studying and understanding a subject in a completely different way. 4. What are the challenges of receiving peer feedback in peer assessment? I have the same thought that I explained in the paragraph above, I often thought that it would be good for a teacher to do the evaluation, since in my understanding, a teacher should have more knowledge than the student, but that changed after I started to study the benefits of having peer review. Only one thing worries me that when a student evaluates, he says he has errors, but usually he doesn't mention these errors, making us not know what we have to improve. I believe this was a challenge that I had to deal with last semester and that I hope not to deal with this semester. 5. What strategies will you use to peer assess written assignments? How will you assess discussion assignments? My strategy before evaluating anyone and seeking to have as much knowledge about that particular subject, seeking to be fair when it is a grade for a student's work, because I know that it is not easy to develop critical thinking, and teaching in a university level is not the same as high school education. I intend to evaluate the work of other students seeking to understand their point of view, seeking to obtain prior knowledge on that subject, seeking to be fair in the grades and giving feedback on something I think is wrong, and giving us an opportunity to debate didactically.
