Abstract

In Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT), there has been an interest in employing the peer-review process in context of teaching programming but previous attempts to find an appropriate platform have been unfruitful. In this paper we describe the considerations with regard to the design and implementation of a web-based peer-review system that enables the use cases involved with the process. We tested the system in a programming course to assess its suitability and usability from the students' point of view. The test confirmed the design to be working and laid out the groundwork for future development of the system.
