Peer Review & Feedback
Structuring this process and having a protocol for students to follow is important for getting the most out of peer review and feedback, and for it to be a positive experience for everyone. Sentence starters are a good way to achieve this.
Glows
- I like how you.....
- This is quality work because....
- The best part of your work is....
Grows
- It might be helpful to....
- Have you thought about.....
- One suggestion I have is......
The more specific students can be, the more meaningful the feedback will be. Most importantly, if we provide time for peer review and feedback, we should also provide time for the students to act upon that feedback to improve their work. Additionally, using technology for this process allows you as the teacher to keep a long-term record of the feedback process and assess this skill. I've included some technology integration suggestions for peer review and feedback below.

Tips for Your High Tech Transition
- Work with your team to plan meaningful tech integration and support each other with implementation.
- Seek recommendations or assistance from your Instructional Coaches.
- Practice your tech before you use it with students.
- Set a goal for yourself. For example: I will incorporate at least 1 tech activity into my lesson plans each week.
- Plan ways for teachers to support teachers. Consider a monthly morning get-together where teachers can take turns demonstrating what has worked for them in the classroom.
