Phases of the Round
Each round is divided into the following phases:
- File Submission
- Peer Review
- Feedback & Questions
File Submission
Once you have registered and logged in, you will see the student dashboard.
To begin, you should review the "Instructions" provided by the instructor and any "Uploaded Instructor Files". You have until File Submission ends to complete your assignment. When you have completed your assignment, you'll need to upload it to Rampant Strategy using the "Upload File" button inside the "File Submission" panel.
After your file has been uploaded, the file contents will be shown using one of our online file viewers. Make sure the contents are correct and that the entire file uploaded correctly. If you submitted the wrong file or it appears to be corrupt, you can delete your submission and re-upload. You can change your submission as often as you like until the file submission phase ends.

For blind assignments, you will notice that the file name is changed to something generic. This ensures it's complete random and other students won't be able to tell it's your work. Please ensure that your name does not appear inside the document for blind peer reviews.

Group Evaluation
For rounds completed as a group, you might be asked to complete a group evaluation for each member of your group. "Evaluation of Group member(s)" will appear in the Feedback window. If it is missing, it means your instructor did not include group evaluations in this round.
Answer all the questions for each of your group members. Note, these answers will only be visible only to your instructor/TA and not your other group members. This ensures you can give honest answers about your other group members performance.
Grading
When the round completes, your instructor or TA will grade your submission. Once your grade is published, you'll be able to view it in the "Grade" panel on the dashboard.
Click the "Details" button in the "Grading" panel to view additional comments from your instructor/TA. If the comments box is missing, your instructor did not provide any comments.
