Problem Statement

In Expertiza, peer reviews are used as a metric to evaluate someone’s project. Once someone has peer-reviewed a project, the authors of the project can also provide feedback for this review, called “author feedback.” While grading peer reviews, it would be nice for the instructors to include the author's feedback, since it shows how helpful the peer review actually was to the author of the project. Currently, however, the instructor has no easy way of seeing the author-feedback scores, so it would be far too much trouble to include them in grades for reviewing. The aim of this project is to build this into the system.

Breaking down the problem statement into 3 subproblems:

1. A toggle button to view/hide average authors scores The review report is already pretty crowded. The addition of a new column for average authors' feedback scores will make things clumsy. And often there is no author feedback, so it will be mostly wasted space. So, we are updating the UI in such a way that it's up to the instructor to view or hide the author's feedback. So, a toggle button at the top of the table will be added to view or hide the average author's feedback. When average authors' feedback is viewed the reviewer column will be squeezed, by using wrapping, in order to allocate space to the average authors' feedback column.

User Interface Updates

Update on Authors feedback columns

A new button will be added at the top of the page where the instructor can use it to toggle the Autor Feedback score. If the instructor doesn't want to look at the author scores (s)he can use the button to disable it.

Update on score awarded column

Score awarded/ Avg. score column is not well designed. Some scores break in between and move to the next row. We will be fixing that issue to make sure that a score appears in a single row else it goes to the next row if it doesn't fit in that row.

New Feature

Right now there is no way for the instructor to look at author comments for the reviews they got. In order to solve this, a new hyperlink will be embedded in the Reviews done column so that the instructor can navigate to the page where (s)he can see all the review given by authors.
