Feedback Fruits is a digital tool for peer feedback and student-active learning. You can participate in testing the tool throughout 2026, until November. You use it directly in Canvas.

Choose tools based on your teaching goals

There is a general decision-making model that helps you choose the right tools based on your teaching goals.

The model is based on common teaching goals, such as

allowing students to give and receive feedback
stimulating discussion
promoting self-reflection
organizing group work
engaging students during lectures

Based on your goal, you will receive suggestions for suitable tools, such as Peer Review or Self Assessment. The model makes it easier to quickly find a tool that suits the activity and learning outcomes.
