Work in Progress: Use of Calibrated Peer Review to Improve Report Quality in an Electrical Engineering Laboratory

This paper discusses the use of a writing exercise in an electrical engineering undergraduate laboratory class in which some of the attributes of the Calibrated Peer Review (CPR) process are practiced. An example of a CPR assignment for an electrical engineering undergraduate laboratory is provided to show how an instructor can potentially modify existing assignments for use with CPR. The results of a “practice CPR” assignment are used to highlight which areas of the CPR assignment preparation need to be given close attention in order to achieve meaningful reviews.
