Introduction to WebPA Nicola Wilkinson 2134/3023 https://repository.lboro.ac.uk/articles/report/Introduction_to_WebPA/9488393 This document is an in-depth look at why WebPA should be used to help in the peer assessment of students, by students, for group working. Both the history and current development of the project, as well as the reasons why WebPA should be adopted are covered. To help develop a better understanding of the WebPA system, a look at the different sections of the system are included. All of the areas than an academic would use are introduced and the terms and concepts used in the system are explained. The scoring algorithm is also broken down and explained for the current version of WebPA running at Loughborough. This has been included to try and help explain the full system and how it works. 2007-10-17 15:13:12 untagged
