Subject: Peer Feedback Learning Exercise?

My students and I are all new to TBL and student peer feedback.  I am aware of many of the potential problems that we might encounter with having students rate each other and  would like to try to mitigate these issues by providing the students with some guidance about the process.  Before they complete the first set of peer evaluations of their teammates, I would like to have them complete a TBL application activity in class on giving effective feedback.  Does anyone have such an activity that they would be willing to share or can anyone point me to any resources to help me create my own?

Some context about my course.  This is a course in Clinical Epidemiology with about 100 first-year medical students.  This will be the first of two sets of evaluations.  This first one will not count towards grade; the second set of evaluations, which they will complete at the end of the course, will count towards grades.  I plan to use the Koles peer feedback form that contains some rating scales and some written comments.  I will not be formally rating the quality of the students comments.
