Have the students create a thread, post their assignments as attachments and then have three other students post replies to those threads. If a student goes in and sees that a particular paper already has three replies, then she or he needs to look at another paper. I don’t think there’s a way you can enforce this automatically, you just have to tell the students to pay attention.

If you look at the times submitted for the replies, you’ll be able to see who did the first three replies.

The font size changes depending on the number of times a key word has been search in the last six months. Bigger = more searches.

The color changes depending on the number of questions/answers in the database linked to that particular key word. The exact number fluctuates based on number of questions/answers, which is a moving target.

The colors change on a continuum. Right now, it's ROYGBIV.
