Evaluating How Peer Review Can Scale Online Assessments for Sustainable Building Design

In this chapter, we describe content delivery methods and lessons learned when combining the massive open online course (MOOC) with the smaller, remote version of the course offered through MIT in Fall 2020. This approach was tested when MIT school buildings were closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and all classes became virtual. For a broader application, we also lay out hands-on tips for sustainable design educators on how to administer a hybrid course that outsources the tutorials, lectures, and assignments from the online course while engaging students through in-person or virtual meetings for in-depth discussions and course project development.
