Peer Review

Overview:

Peer review is a skill with practical application. Both the writer and reviewer benefit. Peer review provides the writer with valuable constructive information to strengthen the work, while the reviewer often recognizes strengths and weaknesses in their own writing after reading and responding to a peer.

WEEK 6 ASSIGNMENT:

You were instructed in week 5 to submit a copy of your rough draft to this forum. If you have not done so, please submit a copy as an attachment in a new thread with your name as the subject.

You will also submit two peer reviews to your peers.

REVIEW REQUIREMENTS:

Choose two different peer rough drafts to evaluate – Choose drafts that have not been reviewed yet if available.

Use the peer review rubric to provide constructive feedback, incorporating specific, positive remarks as well as helpful suggestions so your peer can see you genuinely evaluated their rough draft. Peer Review Rubric

You will provide this feedback as an attachment back to the two peer’s rough draft posts.
