The attached MP3 file contains the audio from UCLA professor Arlene Russell's presentation regarding Calibrated Peer Review (CPR) at the NLII 2005 Summer Focus Session. CPR engages students in formally reviewing and rating each other's work using a defined set of criteria; a Web-based application is used to support the process.
Dr. Russell's presentation is the second of two case studies presented at the session; the first case study was presented by NC State University professor Bob Beichner, who discussed the SCALE-UP project.
We experienced volume problems in capturing the original audio from which this file is taken, so I had to boost the volume quite a bit in post-production. As with the "Models of Interaction" track, this has led to a file with noticeable background buzz. However, Dr. Russell can be heard throughout the track with little problem, so I've decided to post the file for anyone interested.
