Abstract

Calibrated Peer Review(tm) (CPR) is a web-based application that enables students to critically review other students' written assignments anonymously, but only after they have achieved a successful calibration level via online critiques of standardized assignments. The current project expands and enhances this widely used "learning by writing" tool to a more comprehensive "learning by communication" model that includes graphical/pictorial and oral tools. The principal intellectual contribution is the development of new learning materials and teaching strategies coupled with evaluation studies that contribute to reform-driven engineering education. The project seeks to develop a flexible application both for STEM and for non-STEM disciplines that can be directly available to the existing community of registered CPR users (over 950 colleges and universities). © American Society for Engineering Education, 2009.
