Drafting and Revision

Let's Talk About Writing

Offer Your Initial Thoughts & Connect with Classmates

In this discussion assignment, you will be engaging in a formal peer review process for your research essay assignment. Remember, you do not have to be an expert writer in order to provide sound feedback as a reader on someone else’s writing. Also, as a writer, remember that your peer review feedback is for you to consider as you revise. Ultimately, the changes you make to your essay are up to you as a writer.

In your initial post, include the rough draft of your research essay as an attachment. Be sure to attach your paper as a Word file. In the body of your message, write a short memo to your classmates providing two pieces of information:

Where are you in the drafting process? What are your known struggles?

What specific areas would you like a peer reviewer to focus on in your essay?

Your initial post is due by Tuesday at 11:59 PM EST. You will not be able to see posts written by your classmates until you create your initial post.

As soon as you post your essay, please find an essay posted by one of your peers and respond to their post with the comment "I will review this essay." You do not have to review it at that time; you are just signing up for the review. This helps guarantee that everyone's essay is peer-reviewed. Please do not sign up for an essay which has already been "claimed."

The next step is to review your peer's essay. Please read the memo in the initial post and then the attached paper. Complete the peer review CARES formPreview the document and respond to the questions in the memo written by your classmates. Peer review feedback is due by Friday at 11:59 PM EST.
