assessments included regular homework and Matlab assign-ments. For this to be effective given the accelerated pace of the course, it was necessary to findoptions for feedback other than manual faculty grading. Peer grading has proven to be consistentand reliable when used with massive open online courses (MOOCs). Luo et. al studied nearly 2000peer graded assignments and found that scores were not statistically different than those graded byan instructor.4 Beyond the benefit for the student being graded, peer grading forces the studentgrader to engage with the solution and provide constructive feedback to their peer. For the Mat-lab assignments, feedback was given through an automated grading tool called Matlab Grader.5Though this is a fairly new
