How do I manually assign peer reviews for an assignment? – Bearface

When you create a peer review assignment with manual peer reviews, you can choose which students will be assigned peer reviews.

Note: When manually assigning peer reviews, students can complete their assigned peer reviews without having to submit their own assignment first. If you require students to complete their own assignment before being able to complete a peer review, you must automatically assign peer reviews.

Open Assignments

In Course Navigation, click the Assignments link.

Open Assignment

Click the title of the assignment.

Open Peer Reviews

Under Related Items in the sidebar, click the Peer Reviews link.

Manually Assign Peer Reviews

Below the name of a student, click the Add link.

Select Student

Click the Select Student drop-down menu.

Select the peer you would like the student to review [1]. Remember, a student cannot review themselves. Click the Add button [2].

View Assigned Peer Reviews

Assigned peer reviews appear underneath the student names. A check mark [1] indicates a peer review as been completed. A caution triangle [2] indicates a peer review still needs to be completed.

Note: A student's peer review is considered complete after they comment on the submission. If a rubric has been added to the assignment, they must also fill out that rubric.

Manage Peer Review

You can also remind students who still need to complete their assigned peer review(s). To send a reminder, hover your mouse over the assigned peer review and click the Reminder icon [1]. To cancel a peer review, click the Delete icon [2].

To manually assign or reassign a peer review, click the Give [student name] another submission to assess link [3].
