TAG - Peer Review


I'm super charged about "Peer Reviews"!  The acronym "TAG", (Tell, Ask, Give), gives a good starting point for Students. Tell: tell your peer what you liked about the post, project, etching...be specific and give details.  Ask: ask questions about parts that were of interest to you or that you still have questions about.  And, Give - give moral support, give ideas to help make it better, give feedback, give a hearty hi-5 at a job well done!

Peer Review is now becoming a critical element for how we interact in any setting. I have Students Peer Review their Digital Portfolios, completed tech projects and more.  It challenges the Reviewer to listen, think and critically evaluate what they are seeing.  It also challenges the Peer that is displaying their project to do their best work....after all, they will be evaluated on their final creation.

This is a good idea!
