How do I complete a fishbowl review assignment?

  • Updated

Fishbowl review assignments are unique because some students only submit and respond to peer feedback, while others only review original submissions. The first part of this article explains how to complete a Fishbowl review assignment as a submitter. If you need to review peer submissions, go to the steps for reviewers.

1: Submitters upload their documents

During the Submission Phase, submitters will upload their work as a PDF, video, webpage, Word document, PowerPoint, Source code, or text file. You will receive a confirmation email once the upload is successful.

Preview: Click Preview my submission to verify the formatting before the deadline.

Re-uploading: Submitters can replace their file as many times as they like until the deadline. And will receive a confirmation email once the upload is successful.

Once the submission deadline passes, submitter documents will be hidden from their view and it will be released to the reviewers. It will not be visible again for submitters until Step 4. 

2: Student Review Deadline

During the Student review stage, Reviewers will  enter the assignment and complete rubric assessments and comment requirements.

3: Instructor time to review

At this time, instructors have the opportunity to enter the assignment and review rubric and comment submissions. Your instructor may chose to exclude this deadline, which removes End of instructor review period from your list of deadlines, and pushes you directly into Step 4.

4: View & respond to feedback

Once the Author Review & Response stage begins, submitter's documents' are visible again, and they can review their peer evaluations.  Now, they can respond to and continue the conversation with reviewers. 

5: Check your grade
