The study included seven teachers and two classes for each teacher. The study on all groups took eight weeks. Descriptive statistics were used by using the data obtained from the preliminary and final tests. Results showed that the distribution of data for each variable was approximately normal. Univariate ANOVA analysis was used as inferential statistics. ANOVA results showed significance in favour of test groups.

Data obtained as a result of the study supported that the web-based peer and Self-evaluation method is effective in increasing students’ achievement on communication and human relations. When compared to the control group, the results are statistically significant in favour of the students in the test group. The girls are more successful compared to the boys. Teachers’ and students’ views support the quantitative and qualitative results obtained in the study. According to the survey data, it is concluded that students like the web-based program.
