About

Kritik empowers educators to implement peer-to-peer competency-based activities, peer evaluations and feedback stages, team-based activities, and assessments, all while increasing the efficiency of grading and saving countless hours for instructors. This allows instructors to spend more time on mentoring and coaching. Using Kritik's peer assessment platform, instructors also observe higher student engagement and accountability, improved academic performance, and improved functional interactions with students.

 

Authentic Peer-to-peer Learning

Kritik offers a 360-degree peer feedback loop that is divided into three stages:

**Create Stage** In the Create stage, follow the activity instructions and read the provided rubric to create your submission.

**Evaluate Stage** In the Evaluate stage, students are assigned a few peer creations to anonymously evaluate. Students score their peers based on a rubric given in the activity and give a written evaluation.

**Feedback Stage** In the Feedback stage, students are given the opportunity to provide peer evaluators feedback on how motivational and critical their evaluations were.

**Grading Stage** Throughout the three stages, instructors or TAs can view all creations and evaluations at any time. They may choose to edit or revise creation scores, comment on creations and peer evaluations, and/or resolve grade disputes as they see necessary.

Note: A calibration activity is used to help align student grading with how an instructor would grade, improving students’ grading accuracy and quality.‍
