Eli Review vs Marka

Eli Review is a web-based peer learning platform for courses that use peer review and related learning activities. Learners respond to criteria-based questions and prompts, and instructors can use helpfulness ratings to assess the usefulness of that feedback. Learners can make revision plans, submit revised drafts, and compare versions to see what changed. For course coordination, Eli can sync rosters from an LMS, automatically create review groups, send reminders, and schedule reusable assignment sequences. Its analytics track effort, participation, and reciprocity, while Data Stories highlight patterns in those areas and learner growth over time. Learners are also categorized as Strong, Steady, Emerging, or Stalled. Educators in higher education and K12 use Eli across disciplines. Instructor access is free for unlimited courses and all platform features. Student access costs 28.95 USD once for one term of four months, or $52.95 a year for 12 months. Institutional pricing varies by program size, expected use, and implementation goals.

Marka is peer evaluation software for teachers collecting rubric-based feedback on classroom group work and producing consolidated reports. Teachers can create reusable analytic or holistic rubrics with their own scoring scales and criterion indicators. Students see aggregate results and unattributed public notes, not individual peer scores. Results and notes stay hidden until at least three evaluators submit, unless a teacher overrides the threshold for a student. A teacher-only Peer Integrity Engine flags patterns such as free-riding, mismatched self-ratings, rushed scoring, cliques, and rater bias; it does not change scores automatically. Reports can include dashboards, CSV exports, cross-period comparisons, printable reports, and gradebook-ready exports. Teachers import rosters from CSV, and students enter with teacher-issued seven-character codes without creating accounts or providing email addresses. Marka works without an LMS connection and is available on the web and through a lightweight Android app. Its free Basic plan supports up to 3 classes and 50 students per class, with full report preview only.
