Step 1: Assign and Write Small Bits

Eli Review makes it easy for writers to get feedback early and often on texts as small as a sentence.

Step 2: Guide and Give Feedback

Students learn to give helpful feedback through explicit instruction and practice, learning for themselves while helping others.

Step 3: Debrief and Process Feedback

Instructors see formative data in real-time, helping them make evidence-based interventions concerning how and when to coach.

Step 4: Guide and Plan Revision

Revision plans prompt students to process and prioritize feedback, making their thoughts visible for themselves and instructors.

Step 5: Analyze and Iterate

See evidence of improvement in students’ drafts, in the feedback they give and receive, in revision plans, and in revisions.

People moving the needle with peer feedback and Eli Review.

We used peer review as a way to facilitate class discussion. We got to see where everyone else was, those who were doing better and worse.

I was able to chart engagement and direct my attention to students who weren’t engaged to help them through whatever roadblock was in their way.

I am more in-touch with each individual student over time and can document and demonstrate growth because of Eli.
