Gillies, Professor of Education at the University of Queensland, Australia Peer assessment provides powerful opportunities for assessors and assessees, but effective translation into classrooms remains challenging. This substantive yet practical book is an inspiring guide for teachers from different subject areas and educational levels. -Hilde Van Keer, Professor of Education at Ghent University, Belgium Peer assessment has benefits for both the assessors, who contrast and reflect on how others have solved the same activity, and for the assesses, who receive feedback for improvement. Peer assessment places evaluation within the sequence of learning and teaching, improves the quality of teacher assessment, and can provide teachers with extra time to focus on continuous assessment. Using Peer Assessment to Inspire Reflection and Learning is a valuable tool to put this into practice. -David Duran Gisbert, Professor of Education at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, Spain Author InformationKeith J.
