Additionally, it reveals the participants’ perceptions of the effectiveness of Grammarly and Criterion®, software for assisting and evaluating writing, as they were used concurrently with peer review. It was found that the participants’ perspectives of the benefits and drawbacks of peer review supported the findings in the previous studies. The feelings about giving critical feedback varied among the participants, yet they consciously used various strategies for providing critical feedback in their own ways. Through the interview, the need for and difficulty in communication in online classes is confirmed. The participants’ experience with and perception of Grammarly and Criterion® unveiled the software’s potential and the need for appropriate training to maximize its effectiveness. These findings provide insights for preparatory training as well as for optimal use of various feedback types. Limitations of this research are discussed as well.}, pages = {19--35}, title = {Peer Review: Student Perspectives and Strategies Found from a Semi-Structured Interview}, volume = {11}, year = {2022} }
