Frequently Asked Questions

The anonymous review configuration significantly reduces friendship bias. The rubric design also helps, criteria written as specific questions require reviewers to evaluate specific elements rather than give a global positive or negative impression. The calibration activity, which shows students examples at different quality levels, establishes a shared standard that makes it harder to justify inflated ratings.
