If the assignment does not meet one of the criteria in the rubric, be sure to let the student know how they can improve. In addition, your assignment is to engage with what another student has said following the guidelines laid out by Dr. Betsey Barnett in her lectures on Multicultural Understanding. In the peer review, you must demonstrate that you understand what another student is saying by relating it to other course materials and your own personal experience. Your goal is to demonstrate understanding rather than agreement, disagreement, or judgement. Peer review is NOT a space to harass, intimidate, or patronize another student. It is not a space to play devil's advocate, or to start a debate. One excellent way to demonstrate multicultural understanding is to connect what the student has discussed to examples and themes in our other course materials for that week, or to recount a related personal experience that you have had. Please avoid compliments or critiques. "I really liked it when..." and "I agree with what you said..." are two statements to avoid. For more details on how to communicate using understanding rather than agreement or disagreement, please take another look at Dr. Barnett's lectures in the day one and week one modules.
