A conceptual framework of the use of mobile augmented reality in peer assessment

This study presents a conceptual framework of applying mobile augmented reality technology on peer assessment to reduce the bounds of work reviews and assessment. According to mobile technology and augmented reality, students can show their design in various ways at different places or in different situations. This paper proposes a novel mobile peer-assessment system which combines augmented reality with the reviewing and assessing processes. This framework enables students to enhance work interpretation, frequently interact with peers, represent their thinking and reflect upon their own works. Furthermore, the mobile AR technique provides personalized and location-based adaptive contents that enable individual students to interact with the mixed reality environment and to observe how works are possibly applied to the real world in the future. The whole process assists students in reviewing works based on various dimensions, gaining proper knowledge, cultivating critical thinking skills and reflection as well as promoting meaningful learning.
