The 10 peer evaluation form questions
A peer evaluation form is how students on a group project rate each teammate's share of the work, and their own, so one group grade becomes individual grades. The ten questions rate what each person did, not who they are, and all ten open in the free form builder. For coworkers, use the 360 degree feedback survey.
Who is rating whom
Both required, because every answer after them is about the person named in question 2.
- What is your name?
- Which member of the team is this form about?sort every response by this answer before you read anything else.
What this person did
Five things a teammate can see, on one line from never to always. Swap in the criteria from your own project brief.
- This person did the part of the work they agreed to take on.the agreed split, so the answer points at something written down.
- This person had their part ready when the rest of the team needed it.late work costs the team even when it is good.
- This person handed over work the team could use without redoing it.where a low score sends you to the comments first.
- This person replied when the team needed an answer.
- This person brought ideas the team ended up using.credit for work the finished project does not show.
In their own words
Both optional. Comments about the course belong in the course evaluation questions. Comments about you belong in the teacher evaluation form.
- What did this person do that the team most needed?where a quiet contributor gets credit by name.
- What would you ask this person to do differently next time?forward-looking: advice the teacher can pass on.
The overall judgment
One comparison against an equal share, so a team that split the work evenly reads as even.
- Overall, how did this person's contribution compare with an equal share of the work?the answer each individual grade is based on.
How to use the peer evaluation form
Every student rates each teammate and themselves, one form per person. Share the criteria when the project starts and send the form the day the work is handed in. It is named because it feeds a grade; teammates never see each other's answers.
To turn question 10 into grades, score its options 1 to 5 and use WebPA, the peer grading method from Loughborough University: divide each rater's scores by their total, add up the shares each student received, and multiply the group grade by that sum.[1] To narrow the spread, peer-adjust only half the grade.
Read questions 3 to 7 item by item. A low score from the whole team on one item is the conversation to have.
Peer evaluation form FAQ
What do you write on a peer evaluation form?
Name what the person did, with a moment the teacher can check: "Priya rebuilt the results chart the night before it was due," not "Priya was great." One specific credit and one specific change help a teammate more than general praise.
How do you run a peer evaluation online?
Post one link to the class. Each student opens it once per teammate and once for themselves, typing the name in question 2, so responses sort by person afterwards. Tell students how many forms to send: four each in a team of four.
What is the difference between a group evaluation form and a peer evaluation form?
A group evaluation form rates how the team worked as a whole; a peer evaluation form rates each member's part in it. To get both, add one closing question to this form: "How well did your group work together?"
