Online Self Assessment and Peer Assessment of Students Teamwork: Evidence from Accounting Information System Discipline

Abstract

This research was conducted to find out the extent to which a College Instructor can depend on peer evaluation of students as an accurate reflection of the contribution of each team member on the Team Project. This study used two approaches, namely quantitative and qualitative approaches. Quantitative approach is carried out to find out whether there is a difference between the assessment of group friends during the process of making project report and performance of their teamwork during the presentation. This is to see whether the assessment by the lecturers is sufficient to assess the contribution of each team member. Then, to find out if the Peer Assessment is fair, the Peer Assessment will be compared to Self-Assessment, whereby students were given the opportunity to assess their own contributions in the Team. Qualitative approach is carried out to see how students perceive the implementation of Peer assessment and Self-Assessment to determine the contribution of each member to the Team.
