There are TWO options for completing peer review:DIGITAL PEER REVIEW — If you digitally submit your work before the official deadline, Canvas will randomly assign TWO peer reviewers to your work, and randomly assign you to review TWO peers. [PLEASE NOTE: Digital peer review is NOT possible if you submit late, as Canvas won't include you in peer reviewer assignments. So if you miss the digital deadline, your backup option is #2 below!] You should see your peer review assignments within a couple hours after the submission deadline. To submit your peer review, you will need to enter comments in the text box alongside your fellow students' work. If you would also like to make additional annotations on the digital document, you can find DocViewer system instructions HERE. (NOTE: The deadline for completing your peer reviews is the same as the pen-and-paper Workshop session, i.e., 4pm Thursday). PEN-AND-PAPER PEER REVIEW — Bring a printed copy to the Thursday workshop, where you will review peers' papers, and they will review yours. Detailed instructions for peer review: TBATBATBANB: If you want additional feedback, beyond peer review, please come to office hours! We will be happy to discuss your work.
