Why Peerceptiv

Engage Students with Peer Learning

Break the dependence on multiple-choice assessment and promote quality learning online or in-class. Incentivize students to engage at a high level with their peers around evidence-based assessment — writing, presentations, video upload, group projects — while generating the learning data to confirm outcomes and quickly identify at-risk learners.

More than a decade of research on the benefits of peer learning has gone into the development of the machine learning algorithms that generate valid and reliable grades through peer interaction. Peerceptiv helps ease a staggering faculty workload and supports the formative assessment that contributes to success both in the classroom and in the workplace.

Drive Improvement with Instructor Analytics

Peerceptiv offers a wide range of analytics to confirm learning objectives are met, identify students in need of early intervention, and guide the instructor on rubric improvement over time. Learning dashboards allow administrators to monitor progress and measure outcomes from course-to-course, across disciplines. By using Peerceptiv, instructors will have on demand access to more valuable learning data because of the volume and frequency of peer feedback. Peerceptiv is now IMS Caliper Analytics® certified.

Promote Writing Across the Curriculum

Writing equals thinking. Peerceptiv is used in many different types of writing assessments in all subjects. Beyond their own writing, students learn by gaining new perspectives from reviewing the writing of their peers. They receive actionable feedback from peers far faster than in an instructor-centered course environment. With Peerceptiv, students not only learn to write, they write to learn. 

Scale Deeper Learning

Peerceptiv’s grading algorithms allow truly scalable learning in all courses and classroom models. Instructors have the opportunity to participate along with learners, often increasing the benefits of peer learning, at any desired level—including the option to intervene only for selective students if they wish. Peerceptiv scales naturally no matter how many students there are, or what the subject is, in the classroom or online.
