that peer assessment can promote effective teamwork (Bacon, 2005;Chowdhury & Murzi 2019; Riebe et al., 2016). These peer assessments often contain bothrating and open-ended questions that reveal students' opinions about their interactions with theirteammates. In reality, many researchers utilize quantitative metrics acquired via surveys for this kindof data collection, and they depend on predefined rubric guidelines that may not considercertain aspects of students' opinions (Balahadia et al., 2016). It is important to note thatinstructors need to monitor not only team progress toward completion of tasks and activities, butalso to evaluate students' self-assessment and peer-assessment on a frequent basis.
