Peer Review Assignments

Peer review assignments enable students to provide feedback on another student's assignment submission. The instructor can manually or automatically assign peer reviews in Canvas. Students can see to other student’s names, or you can make them anonymous. When using peer reviews in your classroom, you allow communication between students and can help students master the concepts of a course and learn from each other.

Moderated Assignment Grading

Moderated grading allows multiple reviewers to grade a student’s work and create a draft or provisional grades for an assignment. As an instructor, you can have a TA grade and still maintain control on the final grade and when students see it. Moderated grading in Canvas allows for two reviewers and one moderator.
