Original Source Material Student Version
In a complex task such as creating a
website for learning, instructors may
want to support the generation of
multiple solutions in learners' peer
feedback. Anonymity may create a
social context where learners feel
freer to express varied ideas, and
make the task of giving feedback
less inhibited. However, teachers
need to know just how anonymity
impacts the learning dynamic in
order to make informed choices
about when anonymous
configurations are appropriate in
peer feedback.
We agree with the idea that teachers
must know how hiding identity can
influence a learning experience so that
they can make intelligent decisions
regarding when hiding identity is apt in
peer feedback situations (Howard,
Barrett, & Frick, 2010). Without this
knowledge teachers could be creating
peer feedback activities that result in
feedback being shared that is very
different than the type that was desired
or expected.
