Case Study: Simpson College enhances student engagement and participation with Kritik

Sal Meyers Implement Team-based learning with Peer Assessment

The customer, Simpson College, and its professor Dr. Sal Meyers faced challenges with inconsistent student participation and difficulty tracking contributions in group-based writing projects. To address the poor learning experience from scattered commitment, they turned to the vendor Kritik and its peer evaluation tool.

By using Kritik's customizable rubrics and calibration activities for peer assessment of group video presentations, the solution facilitated consistent participation and exposed students to diverse perspectives. For the educator, Kritik resulted in accurate student grades, which reduced the instructor's grading workload and strengthened her confidence in the process.
