In our most recent Turnitin Academy Live webinar, Developing Critical Thinking Skills with PeerMark, we asked our attendees, "What are the benefits of peer review and why do we bother?"

Some of your colleagues answered:

• "I think it's still good for kids to see other writing."
• "It helps students see if they are communicating well."
• "They are learning to objectively look at writing."
• "It is a rich source of feedback."
• "Enlarges their sense of audience past just thinking only the instructor is reading their papers."
• "The reviewer profits as well as the reviewee."

Find out how and why you should be using peer review in your classes, regardless of what subject you teach. You can watch a recording of Developing Critical Thinking Skills with PeerMark at your convenience and you can view all of our previously recorded webinars at the Turnitin Academy Live page in the Training Center.
