Research on College English Writing Based on Peerceptiv Peer Review System

Jie DU

Abstract


This research conducted a writing experiment based on the Peerceptiv peer review system, collecting the first and second drafts of 47 non-English majors based on one topic, as well as the peer review comments and grades, the reliability of students’ evaluations, and average grades on each dimension from the Peerceptiv platform. Through a comparative analysis of the mean grades of students’ first and second drafts in various dimensions, it was noticed that students’ writing skills showed a slow upward trend through the multi-peer reviewing mode. Students’ second draft showed better quality than the first one. However, the overall rating reliability of the grades in various dimensions of the two drafts was low. Compared with the first draft, the credibility of the second draft’s peer review improved significantly in several dimensions. The reason lies in the students’ limited English proficiency and their negative attitudes resulting from relying solely on peer evaluation and grading mechanisms. Therefore, the combination of “teacher’s personalized guidance + online peer review + teacher evaluation” can maximize the advantages of the Peerceptiv platform and help writing teaching.
