Compared to other web e-learning platforms such as Moodle or Blackboard, this free to use system has a relatively limited scope and it allows in particular to upload student assignments and to provide feedback from peers. The authors used the Aropä peer-review system for the first time in the academic year 2016/2017. The aim of this article is to critically analyse the system and to provide experience and feedback on its use during the university course Ethics, Corruption and Transparency. The course has been running for two years at the Faculty of National Economy, University of Economics in Bratislava. The article deals with some practical issues faced by teachers who employ e-learning and peer-review platforms. Among the problems that the authors have experienced and successfully dealt with were: plagiarism, gaming and free-rider problem, student motivation, and contradictory feedback. Aropä proved to be an excellent peer-review system which supported development of critical thinking and reflective skills in students throughout the semester. Furthermore, the authors took a risk and introduced an Anglo-Saxon style into the teaching and assessment of the course in an environment which is still heavily conservative and traditionalist in terms of the teaching methods. Primarily, regular weekly essay writing and peer review through the Aropä system was introduced as one of the three modes of course assessment leading to the final course grade. Students had to write and assess their peers’ essays – both a task and a skill that the Slovak university educational system does not prepare for. The risk paid off and the quality of essays has steadily increased over the semester. Both the teacher and the students found the web-based peer-review system useful and effective in delivering the course outcomes – both in terms of knowledge and skills.

Title Collaborative learning in PeerWise Web 2.0 technology Author info Jana Jacková, Paul Denny Author Jacková Jana 1963- (90%) UMBFP05 - Katedra informatiky

Source document DisCo 2015 : from analog education to digital education : 10th conference reader : 10th international conference, Prague, 22.-24.6.2015. Pp. 25-30. - Prague : Center for Higher Education Studies, 2015 ; DisCo 2015 medzinárodná konferencia / Braimoh Dele ; Zounek Jiří Keywords kolaboratívne učenie vyučovanie informatiky - teaching informatics collaborative learning computer science education Language English Country Czech Republic Annotation PeerWise is a web-based system developed at the University of Auckland which supports Contributing Student Learning. Contributing Student Pedagogy means a pedagogy that encourages students to contribute to the learning of others and to value the contributions of others. PeerWise is typically used for collaborative learning of students through multiplechoice questions created and discussed by them. Inspired by the high level of engagement and enjoyment exhibited by those playing video games, PeerWise includes some simple game-like elements. Developing and answering questions and providing feedback on them through the PeerWise system can be involved in almost all types of higher education standard and distance courses. Since 2013/2014 academic year we have been using PeerWise in six computer science courses at the Matej Bel University. We used it as part of students’ required coursework for developing of higher order cognitive skills, motivating student learning and as a presentation tool. In this paper we describe our preliminary results and findings from our experience. Peerwise was used by 95% of students in our 2013/2014 pilot use in two courses; 79% of final questionnaire participants enjoyed creating questions and learning from other PeerWise users and 88% of final questionnaire participants found the activity with PeerWise useful. We found out that creating student-developed multiple-choice questions repository is a meaningful activity that can be used to increase students’ interest in various topics covering the area of their course learning material.
