To preview the assignment and annotate feedback on the assignment using DocViewer markup tools, click View Feedback. For detailed instructions, see How do I use DocViewer in Canvas assignments as a student?

To view and complete the rubric (if used), click Show Rubric. After completing the rubric, click Save Comment to save the Rubric.

Notes

• Peer Reviews are not assigned until after the assignment due date. 
• When providing feedback, you cannot see any of the feedback provided by the instructor or other students. 
• In order for the peer review to be considered complete, you must provide a summative comment in the comment sidebar. 
• If a rubric is attached to the assignment, you must complete both the rubric and provide a summative comment in the comment sidebar. 
• An exclamation point next to the name of the assigned peer indicates the peer review is incomplete. 
• A check mark next to the name of the assigned peer indicates the peer review is complete. 
• Make sure you have time to fill out the rubric completely. Canvas won't let you change your rubric ratings once they're saved. You can leave a summative comment indicating changes you want to make. If the rating factors into the other student's grade, you may want to message your instructor to let them know about the mix-up.
• Media comments and attached file comments display in the same list with text comments.
