Eli Review is an online course tool created by instructors for instructors to promote effective peer feedback and critical thinking.

In the 15 years since, 500,000 students across nearly every subject have become better writers because they’ve used Eli Review to get more opportunities for feedback and revision.
We provide guides for evidence-based coaching, for tools to move the entire class toward better writing and feedback, tallied responses to indicate how well drafts meet criteria, and structured questions that guide reviewers to notice criteria before they jump to evaluation, all based on peer-reviewed research.
