Jim Lindsey, an instructor at Western Kentucky University, discusses using peer evaluations, peer critiques, custom projects, and small group discussions in the classroom. He outlines what each technique is, potential pros and cons, examples of implementation, and lessons learned. Small group discussions allow students to think critically, improve communication skills, and learn from each other. Custom projects set an individualized but standardized assignment to prevent cheating. Peer critiques and evaluations give students experience assessing peers' work while also providing detailed feedback to other students. Lindsey emphasizes clear instructions, examples, practice, and accountability for successful implementation of these collaborative learning strategies.
