The materials in the Assignment Library underwent a three part review process. NILOA team members review the initial submission, then the assignment is peer-reviewed by faculty in an assignment charrette. Assignment authors revise their assignment informed by the feedback and implement it in a course, gathering feedback from students along the way. Finally, authors resubmit their materials to NILOA, where they pass through a final review prior to posting. Authors are encouraged to submit updated versions of their materials and to continue reporting how the assignment is being used in their classrooms.
