Create an iPeer Event

1. In iPeer, click the Courses tab at the top of the page.
2. Click on the course for which you want to add an Event.
3. In the Evaluation Events box, click Add Event.
4. In the Add Event page:
   1. Enter an Event Title and Description.
   2. Beside Event Template Type click the drop-down list then select the type of Evaluation you want to use for this Event.
   3. Beside Preview, click the drop-down list then select the Evaluation that you want to use. Note: this list shows Evaluations created by you as well as templates created by other UBC instructors.
   4. Leave items Self-Evaluation to Student Result Mode as Disabled.
   5. Enter a Due Date for when students need to complete the evaluation.
   6. Beside Evaluation Released From and Evaluation Released Until, enter dates before the Due Date.
   7. If you set Auto-Release Results to Disabled, then Results Released From and Results Released Until will not release anything (entering dates is still required). If Enabled, enter dates after the Due Date.
   8. iPeer Email Reminder is disabled. Create a "Not Graded" assignment in Canvas (Display Grade as "Not Graded") with a due date matching E above and a link to https://ipeer.elearning.ubc.ca/. This will add a task to the student Canvas calendar but will not create a column in the gradebook. Alternatively, post an announcement with a link to iPeer.
   9. Beside Groups, select the groups to assign this Event to.
   10. Late penalties are an advanced topic.
5. When finished, click Submit.
