[ARCHIVED] Peer reviews visible to other peers?

[alwaterhouse]

Can students see each other's peer reviews? In other works if Sue and Jim do peer reviews of Tom's paper, can Sue see Jim's annotations on speed grader, or Jim's comments in the rubric, or anything Jim posted under assignment comments, including uploaded files?

And, can Sue or Jim see the instructor notations in the rubric, speedgrader notations,  any assignment comments, or uploaded files from the instructor? 

Thanks

Hi  @alwaterhouse  Welcome to the Canvas Community. The answer is "no" on all counts.  In fact, this is pointed out in this sentence within How do I use peer review assignments in a course?

Students cannot view previously submitted comments by any other reviewers, including comments by TAs or other instructors.

And furthermore, it's pointed out in the student documentation How do I submit a peer review to an assignment? 

You can leave direct feedback on the assignment using DocViewer, but you cannot view any existing feedback submitted by another student or the instructor.

So, basically, Sue or Jim will not be able to see the instructor's comments....or each other's.

Hope this helps, Andrew!

"Students cannot view previously submitted comments by any other reviewers, including comments by TAs or other instructors."

Unless I'm misunderstanding the context (which is entirely possible), students can indeed see other students' peer-reviewed comments in graded discussions
