“We all need people who will give us feedback. That’s how we improve.”
— Bill Gates
Christopher Riesbeck is an associate professor of computer science at Northwestern University and co-director of the Center for Computer Science and Learning Sciences. He has been doing critique-driven learning since 1997. Dr. Riesbeck is now working on computer-assisted coaching to help struggling students create artifacts worth critiquing. Christopher contributed a chapter to the book Ungrading: Why Rating Students Undermines Learn (and What to Do Instead) titled “Critique Driven Learning and Assessment” which centers around learning as doing.
In this episode, Dr. Riesbeck will discuss how grades seemed to get in the way of what he was trying to do with his programming students and why ongoing critiques help move his students in a direction towards mastering the concepts needed to be a skilled programmer.
