The Peer Review tool allows instructors to create an activity that walks students through the process of uploading their work, assigning students to review their peers’ submissions using pre-defined rubrics created by the instructor, review the feedback their peers provided, and releasing an automatically calculated grade based on the feedback provided to them.
