Abstract

One of the key elements to success in teaching and learning is feedback. Peer feedback is as
important as teacher-student feedback. The main objective of this quantitative study was to find
out the perception of students about peer feedback. The population of this study was undergraduate
students from the faculty of sciences and the faculty of social sciences. A convenient sampling
technique was used to select a sample size of 150. An extensive literature review supports the
researcher of this study to develop an instrument comprising 15 items on a five-point Likert scale.
Cronbach Alpha value of the questionnaire was .87. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used
to analyze the data. The study found that the majority of the students engage in providing feedback
to their peers during assigned tasks in social science classrooms while in science classrooms
students perceive that they do not have time for providing feedback to their peers during classes
and laboratory engagement... The study recommends that there may be a discussion of the
importance of peer feedback in undergraduate classrooms
