Mobius SLIP vs TEAMMATES

Mobius SLIP is a web-based social learning system for creating, reviewing, and critiquing assignments. Each assignment moves through Submission, Review, and Reaction: students submit work, assess peers' work, then respond to the reviews they receive. Students take both author and reviewer roles, and the process is anonymous unless the instructor directs otherwise. Analytics cover attainment, bias, controversy, and self-assessment accuracy for both roles. Suggested peer grades depend on review reliability, and instructors can override them. Instructors can monitor activity in real time, review work, provide feedback, and use course and assignment analytics to guide students. There is no stated cap on courses. Each student may upload one file of up to 10MB; videos must be hosted elsewhere and submitted as links. Students register with an instructor-provided code and a college or university email address. Instructors can upload a roster or allow self-enrollment, and students confirm registration by paying a registration fee. The product is paid, with pricing available on request, and instructor demos can be requested.

TEAMMATES is a web-based peer feedback management system for instructors seeking flexibility beyond their main learning management system. Instructors and students are its intended users, and the project describes the system as highly configurable, including for pedagogical research into peer feedback mechanisms. The service is hosted on Google App Engine and is a joint effort supported by the National University of Singapore School of Computing.
