Using Calibrated Peer Review

The Cain Project supports the use of the Calibrated Peer Review (CPR) software developed by UCLA, Berkley.

Calibrated Peer Review (CPR)™ is a Web-based program that enables frequent writing assignments even in large classes with limited instructional resources. In fact, CPR can reduce the time an instructor now spends reading and assessing student writing.

CPR offers instructors the choice of creating their own writing assignments or using the rapidly expanding assignment library. Although CPR stems from a science-based model, CPR has the exciting feature that it is discipline independent and level independent.

Visit the CPR web Site for additional information: http://cpr.molsci.ucla.edu/

Funding for CPR was provided by the National Science Foundation and by the Howard Hughes Medical Institute. 

Please contact the Cain Project at cainproj@rice.edu if you are interested in using CPR in your course.
