How do I Enable Peer Review for an Assignment?

The Peer Review option in the Assignments tool allows students to review their peer's assignments.

Here's what you need to know:

  • In order to use Peer Assessment, the assignment must be set to a Points grading scale.
  • The Peer Assessment cannot be used with Group Assignments.
  • The Evaluation (peer) Review date must be AFTER the Accept Until Date for the Assignment. 
  • Students will not be able to read their reviews until AFTER the instructor has released the grades.

Be very clear about what type of file should be submitted. We recommend the following:

  • Submission via the text window in the Assignments tool.
  • Submission via an uploaded file (Word).
