Abstract :
Peer-reviews were found as a useful educational activity stimulating social learning but, then again, increasing the teacher´s workload. In our paper we investigated the peer-review outputs with the aim to find out the ways of replacing the teacher´s evaluation with students reviews. Although the findings are encouraging, an adjustment of the peer-review format and criteria could possibly improve the results.
