摘要：It is important for engineering students to peer review each other's work during design projects. Based on the demonstrated value of peer reviews in engineering (e.g., the software industry), numerous industry experts have listed it at the top of the list of desirable engineering skills and practices. However, surprisingly, not many engineering courses in Canadian or even non-Canadian universities and colleges include peer review activities in their design courses. The author thus decided to apply peer reviews to the design project of a senior software engineering course. The purpose of this article is to present our experimental findings, lessons learned, possible challenges and recommendations that may be used to promote learning and also the usage of peer review activities in teaching other engineering courses. The results of our experiment show promising signs of using peer review in a design project.
