In this paper we present a study where a peer reviewing system targeted for conference paper evaluation has been used for enhancing the learning of programming though peer review. For peer reviewing purposes two open source systems were evaluated and MyReview was selected for evaluation. The peer review system was used in one programming focused course and the benefits of peer reviewing were analyzed from the reviewer and reviewee point of view. The results show that a peer review system targeted for conference paper evaluations is applicable for reviewing programs although the system should be much simpler. Students appreciated the documented comments from other students but were more interested in lecturer or other expert opinion.
