Encouraging Student Collaboration & Video Literacy Via Peer Review

Getting students to engage with each other is hard. It is especially difficult to do so in large lectures or online classes. This session will present the findings of a study examining the impact of peer review for student-created videos. We show how video-based peer review facilitates collaborative engagement and active learning in large/online courses, while simultaneously improving student media literacy. This session will describe the study and give detailed instructions for guiding students through the assignment in such a way that does not require any prerequisite training in video creation, for the teachers or the students.
