Online Peer Assessment and Scoring Rubric to Produce Better Digital Systems Designs in an Undergraduate Computer Engineering Curriculum

摘要

This article presents a teaching methodology structured in a combination of online peer assessment and scoring rubric techniques with the objective of allowing students to follow and evaluate their peers work, attempting to find a more favorable educational environment to the development of project designs. The methodology was applied in an undergraduate Computer Engineering Course whose results are shown to be very promising by influencing the students to produce better digital systems designs with the implementation of more complex Input/Output devices. In this way, the applied teaching methodology stimulated creativity and motivated students to a deeper theoretical and practical knowledge related to the course learning outcomes.
