| Abstract: | The current study investigated whether there was a change in higher education students’ attitude before and after receiving peer feedback. The study also investigated the relationship between the higher education students’ attitude towards peer feedback and the quality of received peer feedback. Higher education students (N=65) who participated in an online course delivered through the European Institute of Technology (EIT) were included in the study. Along with the required course assignments, which consisted of writing two essays and giving feedback to four peers’ essays, the students filled a questionnaire about their attitudes towards peer feedback. The questionnaire was administered at three different points; before the first assignment, after writing and giving feedback on the first assignment, and after writing and giving feedback on the second assignment. The results revealed that there was a correlation between the students’ attitude towards peer feedback and the quality of the received peer feedback after the first assignment. However, there was no correlation between the students’ attitude towards peer feedback and the quality of the received peer feedback after the second assignment. Moreover, the results revealed that there was no change in the students’ attitude towards peer feedback before and after receiving peer feedback. The study’s results call for more research into the role of peer feedback quality, how increasing quality contributes to a more positive attitude towards peer feedback, and how the nature of assignments might affect the students’ attitude towards peer feedback. |
