When using this feature, Canvas will assign peer reviews to selected students once they have submitted their own assignment.
- It may take up to one hour for Canvas to assign peer reviews.
- If a student has not submitted the assignment or submits the assignment after the due date, the student will not automatically be assigned a peer review and you must manually assign one.
- On Paper and No Submission assignment types must be manually assigned peer reviews.
- If a student enrollment is deleted or becomes inactive, students will no longer be assigned to complete a peer review for the deleted or inactive enrollment. However, peer reviews already completed by the deleted/inactive enrollment will still display for students and instructors. If peer reviews have already been assigned, you may need to adjust assigned peer reviews.
- Instructors must manually assign peer reviews to ensure that students who are part of the same group do not get assigned to each other on a group project.
