Calibrated Peer Review (CPRTM) What’s it all about? by Dr. Wendy Keeney-Kennicutt CPR Administrator, TAMU

WHAT IS CPR™? A Web-based instructional writing and peer assessing tool Originated in the Molecular Science Project, an NSF-sponsored chemistry reform project (DUE 95-55605) at UCLA Enables students to learn by writing about significant topics in a course FREE

Why is writing important? Evaluation Judgment: the ability to make decisions and support views; requires understanding of values Combination of information to form a unique product; requires creativity and originality Synthesis Identification of component parts; determination of arrangement, logic, semantics Analysis Use of information to solve problems; transfer of abstract or theoretical ideas to practical situations. Application Interpretation Identification of connections and relationships Restatement in your own words; paraphrase; summary Translation Verbatim information; memorization with no evidence of understanding Recall Bloom’s Taxonomy – categorizing level of abstraction of questions

HISTORY AT TAMU cpr.tamu.edu 2002 - CPRTM was introduced to TAMU by Larry Peck and myself after Chemical Education workshop demo. 2003 - To avoid FERPA issues & because of WALS NSF grant thru CTE, CPRTM was housed on a secure TAMU server. 2003 - I volunteered to be the CPRTM administrator because of experience. WALS = Writing for Assessment and Learning in the Natural and Mathematical Sciences

HOW DOES IT WORK? The students write an assignment. They pass a calibration step, where they learn to recognize and rank 3 essays of different quality on the same topic. The students, NOT the instructor, critique 3 of their peers and their own work on-line. Instructors can change grades afterwards.

INTRO A CPR assignment consists of three stages: Stage 1: Text Entry Stage     Stage 2: Calibration and Review Stage     Stage 3: Results Stage Only one stage can be accessed at any time.

STAGE 1: Text Entry Stage The student will: explore the assignment source material made available by the instructor: web sites, articles, text books, pictures, movies, animations, etc. submit a text based on the material, guiding questions & writing prompt

STAGE 2: Calibration and Review Stage The student will: evaluate three example texts, called calibration essays. These calibrations will develop their ability to effectively review the work of their peers, evaluate the work of three peers anonymously, and evaluate their own work.

Stage 3: Results Stage For the student: The detailed assignment results are posted. For the instructor: A problems list is generated. All data can be downloaded. Times can be altered for students that miss deadlines.
