Streamline Accreditation with Data-Driven Insights
Peerceptiv is an innovative online peer learning platform designed to revolutionize the educational landscape by offering comprehensive, online peer learning. Peer learning empowers students to actively engage in their learning process while fostering a collaborative environment through peer assessment and Team Member Evaluation. Data generated by peer learning activities in Peerceptiv can also be used to demonstrate that accreditation requirements are met.
With Peerceptiv, instructor-created rubrics guide students through peer assessment and Team Member Evaluation using qualitative and quantitative prompts that can be tagged to measure specific learning outcomes. These rubrics can be easily shared across departments and universities, promoting consistency in assessment standards. Entire courses can be duplicated within Peerceptiv, streamlining the reuse of successful course structures and content. Identical rating prompts and learning outcome tags ensure consistency in assessment standards and facilitate data analysis across cohorts. This functionality both saves instructional time and contributes valuable data for accreditation purposes.
Furthermore, Peerceptiv’s Administrator dashboard uniquely allows administrators to gain insight into the effectiveness of instruction, including how many instructors and courses are using Peerceptiv, how many assignments they’ve run, and how many students have benefitted. Administrators can search for specific courses and instructors to chart student interactions and activity, view assignment-level data, and even search for specific students to track their longitudinal performance over time on specific rubric criteria. This granular-level data can be used to support accreditation and make program-wide improvements.
“We can use [data from Peerceptiv] directly for our accreditation and say, ‘Look this is how the students were rated, this is how they scored. This is what we consider the threshold of acceptable, this is the percentage of students that made it to that threshold and the ones that didn’t. That allows us to close the loop and say, if that was not acceptable, why not? What do we need to do better?” says UVA engineering instructor, Adam Barnes. “Again, from an accreditation standpoint, it’s really important to be able to assess each [aspect of communication] and assign a number to it.” Read how UVA Engineering is leveraging Peerceptiv to fulfill accreditation requirements related to communication, teamwork, and collaboration here.
