Abstract
Peer assessment is a practical tool for in-class performance testing. In order to investigate its applicability for oral performances, this study examines the extent to which peer assessments by Japanese students correlates with teacher assessments in terms of the following conditions: (a) anonymity of the rater and (b) peer discussion of students' oral performances prior to assessment. Students' oral performances in story retelling tasks were rated by their peers and teacher and these assessments were subsequently compared. The results showed that (1) peer and teacher assessments were significantly correlated when anonymity of raters was preserved and (2) determining ratings in pairs did not increase the correlation between peer and teacher assessments. These results suggest that whether peer assessment is a genuine tool for evaluation remains open to question.
