# How to create a peer Assessment Activity

To create a peer assessment in the learning portal, use the built-in **Workshop** activity. It allows students to submit work and evaluate their peers based on criteria you define, resulting in two separate grades: one for their submission and one for the quality of their peer reviews.

### Step-by-step setup
1. Go to your course and click **Turn editing on** at the top right.
