Quick summary of steps:

   1. The first assignment is to collect student submission
   2. The second assignment is the peer review round
2. Students submit the assigned work to be reviewed in the first assignment with the tool.
3. Students critique their peers' work using the customized rubric in the second assignment with the tool.
4. Students read their reviews and assess the quality of the feedback they received. They also look at the assessments of their feedback.
5. If there’s more than one draft, instructors can create another cycle of review.
6. Instructors grade each student in the tool using auto- or manual-scoring.
