Review other students' submissions
You can view submissions that your classmates have uploaded and flagged as accessible by you and/or the entire class. Depending on how the instructor set up an assignment, you may also be able to enter comments on your classmates' submissions.
When you enter comments on a video, MediaShare time stamps the comment with your location in the video. You can also pause the video, enter a comment, and then continue playing the video.
For a peer-review assignment, the instructor includes peer-review rubrics. The rubrics define criteria or objectives that the submissions need to meet. You select rubric scores based on how well you think the student met the criteria. The student you're reviewing can see your scores after the instructor approves and publishes them.
Note: If your comments aren't posted right away, check with your instructor before entering them again. Your instructor may be monitoring and then posting comments.
