How do I create a Fishbowl review assignment?

  • Updated

Fishbowl review assignments divide students into two groups: one acts solely as submitters, while the other reviews their peers' documents. Imagine one group inside a "fishbowl" submitting their work, while the other observes, reviews, and provides feedback from outside. Similar to Perusall's other Review-Based Assignments, Fishbowl reviews are structured with a series of cascading deadlines. 

  1. Create the Assignment

    • Navigate to the Assignments tab.

    • Select Add Assignment and choose the Fishbowl review option.

  2. Set the basics & deadlines

    • Under Basics, name the assignment and set the deadlines for each stage in chronological order.

  3. Adjust scoring

    1. Under Scoring template for this assignment select from the dropdown, or create a custom one.
  4. Attach a rubric

    • Under Rubric, select a pre-made rubric, create a new one, or choose Qualitative feedback only.
      • Enable Do not ask reviewers to provide overall feedback if you don’t want to require students to submit Overall feedback. Students will still be required to submit in-text comments.
      • Learn more about customizing your rubrics.
  5. Select Students assigned to upload materials. 

    • These students will only upload materials, while the remaining students will review the submissions. Authors will not be required to review any submissions.
  6. Specify assignment options

    • Under Options, specify assignment details such as instructions for students, the date the assignment is visible, and who is partaking.
