If you're wondering how to introduce Kritik in simple terms within your course outline, feel free to use the below text as a guideline or copy and paste it into your syllabus.

Kritik

This term, we will be using Kritik (www.kritik.io), a peer-to-peer learning and evaluation platform. Kritik puts you, the student, at the center of your learning. Kritik is focused on an important goal: to help you in developing critical thinking and communication skills, which in turn set you up for success both in and out of the classroom.

Each Kritik activity has 3 unique stages:

Stage 1: Create → Follow the instructions, read the provided rubric and create a submission

Stage 2: Evaluate → Anonymously score your peers based on the rubric, and provide written comments

Stage 3: Feedback → Provide your peer evaluators anonymous feedback in relation to how motivational and critical their written comments were

Grading

When you participate in Kritik activities, you will receive 3 scores: Creation score, Evaluation score, and Feedback score. The weighted average of these three scores will determine your Overall score for that activity. The Kritik Grading Scheme can be found in the course info section.

Registration/Support

An email invitation will be sent to your school email account that contains information on how to register for a Kritik account and enroll in the course.
