    Design Thinking: Hypothesis for Instructional Designers and Technologists

    This workshop for instructional designers and technologists explores how Hypothesis social annotation can support course learning objectives by fostering meaningful peer and instructor interactions. Our discussion will begin with an interactive examination of social annotation through different design and pedagogy frameworks. We will then review considerations such as course copy, the process of exporting and importing facilitator annotations, and other technical details for using Hypothesis in blueprint/master course shells.

    What 20 Years of Learning Science Research Says About How Psychology Students Actually Improve

    As researchers, psychology instructors know firsthand that peer review sharpens arguments, surfaces blind spots, and produces better work. Dr. Christian Schunn, Senior Scientist at the University of Pittsburgh's LRDC and Professor of Psychology, spent over 20 years studying whether the same principle holds true in the classroom. What he found was consistent: students who give feedback learn more than students who simply receive it, and outcomes improve measurably across the board.

    Teaching Scientifically: How Biology Instructors are Using Research-backed Peer Assessment to Improve Grades and Reduce Scoring Time

    In this webinar, we’ll dig into the research behind peer-to-peer learning and how structured peer assessment leads to measurably better outcomes on lab reports, written assignments, and project-based assignments. We’ll also show how Peerceptiv puts this pedagogy into practice, handling the entire feedback process so every student gets more thoughtful, rubric-guided input than any instructor or TA could deliver alone. Register for the webinar to see how 20+ years of peer learning research translates into better student outcomes in your course.
