Postdoctoral Researcher ‘Argumentative essay writing and online peer feedback’

Inicio » EU Calls and Awards » Euraxess » Arts and Humanities » Postdoctoral Researcher ‘Argumentative essay writing and online peer feedback’

29/06/2020

In this project, we aim to explore the effects of an online peer feedback support tool on various aspects of learning and writing where students with authentic essay writing tasks engage in thoughtful criticism of the work and/or performance of their peers using given criteria. The tool allows students to provide structured feedback to their peers’ essays reciprocally based on the characteristics of a high-quality argumentative essay. The various feedback features in this tool will contain question prompts about the peers’ actual work and/or performance (how am I going/doing?), or indicate a direction by delineating a goal to be achieved (where to go next?).

In this project, the relationships between argumentative essay writing, online peer feedback and students’ learning and writing quality will be explored. Students will use feedback features designed in this project to interact with and provide structured feedback to their learning partners. The outcomes of this project will improve the overall quality of education by helping students writing high-quality argumentative essays, not only for courses at Wageningen University & Research (WUR) but potentially also for many courses in different disciplines at other universities that deal with controversial issues and complex problems.
