Abstract

Due to limited class hours and heavy workload, the teacher could not ensure each student enough opportunities for interpreting practice and feedback. This study seeks to address this problem by embedding peer and self evaluation in cooperative learning activities of the interpreting course. To improve the effect of peer and self-evaluation, the teacher needs to model the process of evaluation and create a supportive culture. It is found that peer and self evaluation not only increase students' responsibility and learner autonomy, but also reduce teachers' marking load and improve working efficiency.
