Learners can review their own submission based on a rubric or answer general questions unrelated to a submission with the Self review activity.

How the Self review activity works
When you add a self review activity to your course, learners are able to answer specific questions created by the instructor. Learners can either see and review their own previous submission or they can answer questions unrelated to any submission. As an instructor, you can decide if you want to set up a self review activity that points to a previous submission or a self review activity with no source associated.
🤔 Why would I want learners to answer questions unrelated to a submission?
The self review activity is a great way for learners to answer questions about themselves or their own work as a whole. For example, you might consider using a self review activity to have learners assess their own skill level before and after taking part in a learning experience or training.
Self review activity with a submission
Learners will see a previous submission and answer questions from a rubric. Question types include text responses, scaled questions, video responses and more.
💡Tip: We have a prebuilt flow for a self review process that includes a submission activity and a self review activity with the source already connected. You can add this flow to your course by selecting the + Add new button on the bottom left and selecting Flows from the top menu. Choose the Self review flow and add it to your course.
Self review activity without a submission
Learners will see questions and answer those questions from a rubric. Question types include text responses, scaled questions, video responses and more.
How to set up a Self review activity
Selecting the + Add new button on the bottom left and choose the Self review under Activities.
Adjust the title and write a description for your learners so they know what to expect.
Navigate to the settings of the self review activity. By default, a self review activity is not connected to a submission activity as a source, so you can select a source here if you want learners to see their previous submission.
In settings, select Feedback rubric to create and edit the questions that learners will answer. You can learn more about setting up a feedback rubric here.
Adjust any of the common activity settings.
How to view responses in a Self review activity
Instructors can view the responses from learners by going to the activity page and selecting View reviews. Instructors will see both the submission and the responses to the feedback rubric in the self review activity.
Instructors can download submissions using the download icon on the bottom left of the results page.
