Peer and self assessment allows learners to assess both each other and their own progress. Both methods encourage learners to monitor progress, take responsibility for their own work and to help others. When used correctly it can correct mistakes and help learners develop in their chosen subject area.
Peer- and self-assessment gives students the opportunity to take an active role in the ongoing and final performance of their peers and themselves in group activities. Peer- and self-assessment further encourages students to be cooperative, responsible, and productive members of a group.
