Giver’s Gain Resources
Describe-evaluate-suggest – short explanation and video to explain the three parts of a helpful comment to students
Giver’s Gain – a Dr. Seuss poem, a teacher interview, and a bibliography
Reading the room in online peer feedback — how Eli’s features support teaching feedback for giver’s gain
Improving Outcomes: Disciplinary Writing, Local Assessment, and the Aim of Fairness — Bill & Melissa’s chapter on Feedback Analytics where we argue that a writing class is only fair if there’s enough practice for the weakest reviewers to improve, and we describe the metrics necessary to chart students’ progress.
How Eli Review Aligns with GSOLE’s Mission

- OLI Principle 2: All program developers and institutional administrators should commit to supporting and implementing a regular, iterative process of professional development and course/program assessment for online literacy instruction.

- Book with Melissa Graham Meeks, PhD, anytime for one-on-one consultations or a group training.
- OLI Principle 3: Instructors and tutors should commit to regular, iterative processes of course and instructional material design, development, assessment, and revision to ensure that online literacy instruction and student support reflect current effective practices.
- We can consult with faculty using course engagement data and the corpus of students’ work to revise their tasks.
- We’ve covered our own reflections on teaching in this blog post about paying attention who leveled up in the course and turning rehearsal into practice.
- OLI Principle 4: Educators and researchers should initiate, support, and sustain online literacy instruction-related conversations and research efforts within and across institutions and disciplinary boundaries.
- All instructors can download course specific submissions and engagement data.
- We routinely provide the “magic spreadsheet,” a beta version of the analytics developed by Bill Hart-Davidson and Melissa Graham Meeks and published in Improving Outcomes: Disciplinary Writing, Local Assessment, and the Aim of Fairness.
- We provide custom downloads for courses or programs by request.
