Evaluación entre iguales en entornos de educación superior online mediante el taller de Moodle. Estudio de caso

Abstract

Abstract: This study seeks to validate a tool which gathers students’ opinion about the use of Moodle Workshop as a means of evaluating peer assessment in online higher education. The statistical study was based on factor analysis and on determining Cronbach’s Alpha. Results show that the tool is reliable (α = 0.878) and only one factor with satisfactory values was extracted, allowing for the interpretation of students’ opinion regarding the peer assessment tool. Therefore, the proposed method can be used for research purposes, enabling further studies which will empirically validate the use of Moodle Workshop. At the same time, it will allow deepening the knowledge of other factors that may contribute to improving peer assessment processes in online education.
