This article is intended for instructors looking to use Peer Review for Assignments in Ultra courses.

# **Overview**

If enabled, Peer review allows learners to provide anonymous assignment feedback to their peers.

- Anonymous peer feedback is delivered along with the instructor’s score and feedback.
- Once enabled, the assignment will have a submission deadline and a peer review deadline.
- Peer feedback can be hidden by the instructor if needed.
- Peer feedback is anonymous:
  - Submitters will never see the names of reviewers;
  - If submitters don’t include their names on their submissions, reviewers also won’t see the name of the submitter.
  - Instructors/TAs will see the names of everyone.

# **Using Peer Review for Assignments**

- Like other assessments, a linked Gradebook column is created when the assignment is created.  This column is for the instructor’s grade.
- A rubric can be attached for instructor/TA grading. However, Peer reviewers cannot view/use this rubric for their peer review.
  - To provide criteria or questions to guide Peer reviewer feedback, you can include those in the Assignment instructions (which will be visible for students during Peer review), or an alternative location.
