This paper explores challenges and opportunities in self and peer assessment and its relationship with educational technologies that support the implementation of the assessment in Higher Educational contexts. While self and peer assessment offer a range of learning opportunities which may lead to enhanced learning outcomes, designing and implementing self and peer assessment comes with complexity and challenges. Through piloting two self and peer assessment tools, the limitations of current technology were identified. This suggested the need to deeply investigate challenges and enablers in self and peer assessment. An online survey captured perceived factors in addition to technology which contributed to the success. While student willingness to participate was the major inhibitor, technology and technology support were seen as vital to contributing to the success of self and peer assessment. Future work should consider educational technologies in context to contribute to the success of self and peer assessment endeavours.
