Level Up Peer Review in Education: Investigating genAI-driven Gamification system and its influence on Peer Feedback Effectiveness

Research / Other Relevance: 4/10 3 cited 2025 paper

This paper presents Socratique, a gamified peer-assessment platform with GenAI assistance designed to improve peer feedback quality in a master's-level functional programming course. The study evaluates whether gamification and AI support increase the quantity and quality of student-provided code reviews through a randomized controlled experiment.

In software engineering (SE), the ability to review code and critique designs is essential for professional practice. However, these skills are rarely emphasized in formal education, and peer feedback quality and engagement can vary significantly among students. This paper introduces Socratique, a gamified peer-assessment platform integrated with Generative AI (GenAI) assistance, designed to develop students' peer-review skills in a functional programming course. By incorporating game elements,
