Transformation of course project report review into peer instruction.
Description:
In my course on sustainable design and production in the Department of Engineering at Aarhus University, students work on a semster-long project in which they apply the concepts learnt in the class to a technical problem in their domain of interest. The deliverables for this project include a report that details the project goals, methodology, results, limitations and future work. The report is structured as a technical publication. In the current plan, the final report will be submitted to the instructor who will review them and present the student teams’ with feedback on their project work. I would like to modify this part of the course using a peer instruction model. Students will act as ‘peer reviewers’ for other project report and provide constructive feedback on them.
Intended Learning Outcomes:
- analyze research work structured as technical publications
- criticize methodology and results in technical publications
- formulate feedback for technical publications
- justify adopted methodology and results produced in technical publications
