The deadline will be shown in your ToDos and calendar.
This article will guide you on:
In case you have not made any attempt for the peer review assignment yourself, then you will not be allowed to peer review other learners' submissions (and will not be shown any peer review submissions allotted to you).

3. You can also access the assignment expanded view from the calendar event from the ToDos or full calendar view.
2. On the Attempts page, you will be able to see the learner's attempt that is considered for grading (by default the latest attempt). In case, the instructor has set up the assignment to be peer reviewed anonymously, then you will not be able to see the name of the learner you are reviewing and the name will be shown as 'Learner'. You can switch between multiple learners (if allotted) from the dropdown or from the next/previous handles.
If anonymous peer review is enabled, the learner(s) whom submission(s) you are reviewing will also not be able to see your identity and will just see a generic label 'Reviewer' instead of your name.
3. Click the 'i' button to view the assignment's instructions.
4. Go through the learner's attempt. As per the assignment's submissions settings, the attempt may include textual submission, file attachments and GDrive/OneDrive documents (if enabled on your Teamie site).

6. Click to open the rubric and select the required scales for respective criterion.
7. As the rubric attached is a scoring rubric, therefore the total score will get updated as per the total score of each of the scale selected in the rubric picker. In case of non-scoring rubrics, the scores need to be added separately.
8. You can also give feedback on the attempt by adding textual comments along with audio or file attachment.
9. If you are allotted more than one learner's attempt to peer review, navigate between the learner's attempt from the dropdown or from the next/previous handles.
You can be allotted a maximum of '4' learners to peer review.
10. Grade the attempt accordingly.
11. Once you have reviewed all the learner's submission allotted to you, the peer review will be considered as completed [for example, in the following screenshot Peer Review (2/2)].
12. The ToDos calendar event will also be marked as completed, with a corresponding green tick, once you complete the peer review.
In case your submission has been peer reviewed by one or more of your peers, then you can check the grades/scores/comments added by your peers as following:
1. On the Materials page of the required classroom/module, click the View Attempts button for the peer reviewed assignment.
2. Your attempt will open up. On the right hand side, below the instructor's scores section you will see a Peer Review section. This section will show the peer review scores and grades (if any) given to you by your peers.
The name of the reviewers will not be visible to you if your instructor have enabled the anonymous peer review setting for the assignment.

4. If available, click the rubric icon to view the scales selected for each criterion during the peer review. A triangle symbol will be shown on the top-right to indicate a peer review grade. Hovering over it will show who has graded this.
The name of the reviewer(s) will not be visible to you if your instructor have enabled the anonymous peer review setting for the assignment.
5. In case the instructor has graded the submission as well, then the grades, scores and comments will also be shown as usual in the respective places.
Take note that the publishing/unpublishing of the scores and comments by your instructor will not affect the visibility of peer reviewed scores and comments. Publishing of instructors scores and comments is independent of peer review scores and comments.
