Would it be possible to implement a \'comment\' option for peer grading? Sometimes, you neither agree nor disagree with the answer suggested, but just want to comment on it, e.g. to point out a spelling mistake, or point out differences in usage, etc.



Just a thought!



Regards

You can do it already, atho\' I agree that agree/disagree is restrictive. BEfore commenting, I decide whether I agree or disagree generally speaking and then qualify with comments...

We now have the option NEUTRAL Oct 8, 2001

Good suggestion, Mary. Let\'s see how people use it.



I also \"color-coded\" the options. Agree comments appear blue, as before, but disagrees are now red. Neutral is green.

Nuetral is great! Neutral would be even better ... Oct 8, 2001

Thanks, Henry, that\'s excellent ... but can I be really picky and point out that Neutral is spelled wrong



There\'s no pleasing some people, I know!



Regards

just a remark Oct 9, 2001

without wanting to sound cheeky, I thought I should point out that the correct spelling is actually \'neutral\', NOT \'nuetral\'!

NUETRAL should be NEUTRAL Oct 9, 2001

Unfortunately, this spelling mistake does not only appear on this page, it also appears on the KudoZ pages!
