Homework Reviewer

Homework is given every Thursday session. Students have until the next Tuesday session to complete the homework. The homework reviewer reviews their homework from Tuesday until Thursday.
Homework is not graded. We ask students to complete at least 80% of the homework. ReDI will follow up with students who have not completed enough homework to offer support. The goal is for students to learn by working on their homework. If it is not complete or perfect, it’s okay.
Your review helps students to know if they are on track.
The teachers of the Thursday class get an overview of the concepts that may need extra attention in class and see which students need 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.
