In their own words
CrowdGrader
CrowdGrader is a web service for students to submit homework and peer-grade classmates’ work while instructors oversee assignments and keep control of final grades. It combines peer assessments into a consensus grade for each submission and removes outliers. A student’s crowd-grade reflects both the grade received and how accurately that student grades other submissions. Students can create reports, math, or code in the built-in editor, or upload files such as ZIP archives. Reviews are anonymous: reviewers do not see authors’ identities, and uploaded files are renamed. Instructors can monitor similarities through clusters and side-by-side submission comparisons. Institutional subscriptions include optional LMS integration, access monitoring, and long-term data retention for auditing. Student work is transmitted over HTTPS; Google authentication uses only the user’s email address for identification. The free instructor-sponsored plan covers up to 20 students per assignment. Other listed options include $2.99 per assignment for up to 35 students, $6.99 for up to 100, and $13.98 for unlimited students.
PeerEval
PeerEval is a peer assessment tool for classroom evaluation sessions. Instructors use a browser interface to enroll students, build evaluation rubrics and download results for analysis. Rubric scoring and moderation tools are supported, along with learning management system integration and gradebook synchronization. Students enter an instructor-provided session name to access an evaluation, add written comments and modify submitted work while the class session remains active. The service runs on the web, and an iPhone app is listed as free on the Canadian App Store. PeerEval is described as paid, but pricing is available only on request and the maker’s pages do not state plan amounts. The App Store identifies Thomas N Robb as the developer and seller. Apple’s listing says the developer has not provided privacy-practice details to Apple. Instructors therefore get browser-based setup and result handling, while students complete and revise rubric-based peer evaluations during class activities.
