Homework Reviewer

The homework reviewer reviews the homework assigned for the Monday class and submits the reviews by the Wednesday session. Homework is not graded. We ask students to complete at least 80% of the homework. ReDI will follow up with students who are not completing enough homework to offer support. The goal is that students learn by working on the homework. If it is not complete or perfect, it’s okay.
Your review helps students to know if they are right on track.
The teachers of the Wednesday class get an overview on the concepts that may need some extra attention in class and they see which students need some extra help.
Homework are reviewed from Google Classroom. Students submissions land under the "Grades" section. Just click on the submission link and add comments for review via the chat function. Everything be kept private and only visible to the reviewer and the students themselves.
Positivity - It can happen easily that feedback only points out the mistakes, but it’s important to give positive feedback as well. Commenting on aspects that you liked about the code is crucial to make the students more confident. We also learn from what we did well.
Specific - Try to make your feedback as specific as possible so the students know which part of the code needs improvement.
Suggestions - Good feedback contains suggestions for improvement. This way, the students will have ideas on how to improve the code, and you will push them in the right direction. Keep in mind the balance between suggestions and self-study; giving away the solution is not always the best thing to do.
