| contents | Educational technologies often misalign with instructors' pedagogical goals, forcing adaptations that compromise teaching efficacy. In this paper, we present a case study on the co-development of curriculum and technology in the context of a university course on scientific writing. Specifically, we examine how a custom-built peer feedback system was iteratively developed alongside the course to support annotation, feedback exchange, and revision. Results show that while co-development fostered stronger alignment between software features and course goals, it also exposed usability limitations and infrastructure-related frustrations, emphasizing the need for closer coordination between teaching and technical teams. |
