A Comparison of Peer- and Tutor-Grading of an Introductory R Coding Assessment by Charlotte M. Jones-Todd, Amy Renelle

“…We find that tutors grade the subjective criterion autonomously from the other rubric criteria, whereas peers grade in line with the prescriptive criteria that evaluates the components and structure of the code. In addition, we estimate between-assessor and between-submission variation using a discrete-Beta mixed model and show that between-submission is greater than grader submission for both peers and tutors. …”
