However, it is not known to what extent a peer feedbackstrategyfor argumentative essay writingcan be generally used in differentcourse domains. This study aims to apply an online supported peer feedback tool in different course domains to see whether the peer feedback tool can be used in different domains or not. For this reason, 330 students from five different courses were asked to write an argumentative essay on different topics, then they were requestedto give feedback on two peers’ essays byusing our onlinesupportedpeer feedback tool, and finally submit their revised essay in the platform. The analysis of data showed that regardless of students’ course domains, the onlinesupportedpeer feedback tool was effective in improving students’ argumentative essay performance pre-test (originalessay) to post-test (revisedessay).
