Peer Feedback Question Generator
Generates a structured question for giving useful peer feedback — specific enough to be actionable, distinct from vague 'good job' comments.
What this generator does
Draws a question for a student to answer about another student's work. The question is what makes peer feedback useful — asked for 'feedback', students write 'good work'; asked a specific question, they have to read it.
What you'll get
This generator draws from a hand-checked list of 30 entries. Here is a spread of 6 of them, so you can see the style before you generate:
- What's the strongest part of this work, and why does it work well?
- What would you want to know more about?
- What did the writer assume you already knew?
- Which example works hardest, and which could be cut?
- Which part would you struggle to explain to someone else?
- Does the work do what the task actually asked, or something adjacent?
A fixed sample of the list, not a live draw — your own results are picked at random from all 30, without repeating until the list runs out. Original authoring for Generate Random — general peer-review prompts, subject-neutral.. Last reviewed 2026-09-03.

Randomness and fairness
Questions are drawn uniformly with the browser's cryptographic random number generator, with no subject awareness.

Practical tips
- Two questions maximum, and require an answer in full sentences.
- Pair the questions with a pairing generator so nobody reviews the person reviewing them — mutual pairs produce noticeably softer feedback in both directions.
