I have implemented a peer-assessment system in an introductory physics course, where students assess each other's homework. Students are provided with descriptive rubrics to guide them through the process. In this paper I describe the implementation of the peer-assessment process, discuss the role of rubrics, present data of agreement of students' assessment with the instructor's, and show evidence of student improvement in evaluation abilities.
