Peer Feedback Forms 

Peer review helps students engage actively with the standards and assessment criteria for specific tasks, encouraging them to reflect on both their own work and the work of others rather than remaining passive recipients of teacher feedback. Through giving and receiving feedback, learners develop key academic skills such as self-assessment, critical evaluation, and clearer communication of ideas. These practices also prepare students for future academic and professional environments where constructive critique and collaborative improvement are highly valued (Wilson, 2026).

What is peer feedback?

Peer feedback is when students provide one another with valuable feedback on their work. 

The last two decades have brought a seismic shift in the provision of feedback. Traditionally, feedback was seen as a ‘gift’ (Askew and Lodge, 2000); something presented by the teacher to the student, with students cast in the role of relatively passive recipients or even bystanders. But there is now widespread recognition that students must play a more direct and active part in feedback, if it is to make a real difference to the quality of their learning. (University of Edinburgh, 2019).

For the Quality Assurance Agency (2021), encouraging students to reflect on their own performance as well as get feedback from others is seen as worthwhile, and especially so “when opportunities for self-assessment are integrated in a module or programme” (QAA, 2021). Skills in giving and receiving feedback are also prized by employers and seen as an indispensable ‘graduate attribute’, helping to prepare students for learning in everyday life and work beyond university (Boud and Falchikov, 2016).
