Peer Review

Today, there was peer review session in class. Oh, how I dread peer review! I often wish my professor did not allow us to do it just because of how I believe I will do with helping others. Typically, I have trouble trying to proofread and reword my paper to give it that effectiveness. Therefore, I worry how I might do with someone else’s paper. However, today it was not disaster as I thought it would be. I actually enjoyed reading my peers paper. I guess it because their topics were interesting to read. The short session was good and I got great feedback from my group members. They mostly suggested that I add more details to certain parts, and my weakness I could approve. I did not get anything about grammar mistakes, and misspell words, which really please me. I wanted my paper to be close to perfect so I will have less editing to do. My main concern about my paper was whether the readers were able to identify my claim, and that my examples supported my claim. I want my paper to be concise that targets a particular audience.I believe my paper is more towards persuasion than truth seeking. I think I might have persuaded my group members to agree with my argument. As for giving good feedback to my group members, I know I did a good job. I mostly gave advice of switching paragraphs were I thought it would fit best, and the usage of other words instead of commonly used ones. My other group member I did not have time to review the work, but I’m taking time out at home to go over it and give the best advice I can. Overall, the session wasawesome! I hope that the next one is just the same.
