This activity enables students to evaluate and give feedback on oral presentations made in class by their peers. This interactive approach encourages greater attention and better assimilation of the concepts presented, compared with simply listening passively. The teacher can use these exchanges to stimulate constructive discussions in class, deepening understanding of the topics covered.

Why not use our AI assistant to guide students in their feedback. The assistant can give them elements to improve their feedback and make it more constructive.
⬜ Preparing criteria: Develop clear and relevant assessment criteria in collaboration with the students. This will help them understand what constitutes an effective presentation and focus on the important aspects when assessing.
⬜ Feedback training: Before starting the activity, train students to give constructive, respectful feedback. Emphasize the importance of balancing positive comments with suggestions for improvement.
⬜ Assessment structuring: use a structured assessment system, such as rubrics or forms, to guide students in their assessment and ensure consistency in feedback.
⬜ Reflection time: Allow a brief moment after each presentation for reviewers to reflect and formulate their comments thoughtfully.
⬜ Facilitated discussion: after the presentations, lead a group discussion on observed strengths and common areas for improvement. This can help consolidate learning and share good practice.
⬜ Anonymous feedback: consider using an anonymous feedback system to encourage honesty and reduce peer review anxiety.
⬜ Integration into overall assessment: consider integrating the quality of feedback given into overall student assessment, to encourage serious and thoughtful participation.
⬜ Monitoring and continuous improvement: use assessment results to identify trends and areas needing attention in your future teaching of oral presentation skills.
⬜ Meta-cognitive reflection: encourage presenters to reflect on the feedback received and develop an action plan to improve their future presentations.
⬜ Valuing diversity: Emphasize the value of diversity in presentation styles and encourage students to appreciate different effective approaches.
ChallengeMe offers clear and precise evaluation criteria that you can customize. What's more, the anonymity of assessments and the possibility of having several assessors per job help ensure fairness.
We also recommend preparing the students, explaining the objectives, and even co-constructing the criterion grid with them, taking examples from previous work.
Absolutely, group work is possible, both in the response phase (submitting a file as a group, for example) and in the evaluation phase (students must agree on feedback and evaluations).
We have a wide range of content available. On the platform, students are guided through the activity with tips for giving relevant feedback. We also provide teachers with documents they can use to present the activity to students.
The choice is yours! You can set up a formative system only (no grades, only feedback), or build a grade with weighting on criteria, bonuses/maluses according to certain events (lateness, for example), or even weight the peer assessment grade with the teacher's grade.
We work with over 90 schools in France, Switzerland, Belgium and Quebec. On our website, you'll find feedback from other schools on our activities.
