Notes: Remember to be specific in comments that you
put on a peers paper. You will be
graded based on if you can effectively edit a peer’s paper. It is always helping to reread sections that
you find problematic. Remember that you
are helping the person if you point a problem area out not if you ignore a
problem area. It cannot be improved if
you simply skip over it because they are your friends.

Materials: Editing directions and guidelines.
