Seventeen students enrolled in a senior-level undergraduate digital signal processing class participated in a three phase PE process designed to formatively and summatively evaluate peers’ course projects using well -understood criteria and reliable measures. The results show strong and positive correlations between the student PEs and the instructor evaluations. Further, the significance of a project proposal when formatively evaluated was positively related to structure, completeness, and overall quality of the final project report when summatively evaluated. Students were generally satisfied with the hybrid PE model, and practiced on how to give professional feedback and constructive criticism. This article adds to our understanding of the PE method and its use in engineering education.
