Initial Post Instructions

Revision is one of the most important aspects in the writing process. It is literally the act of "re-seeing" our writing to find ways to improve the focus, support, organization, grammar, and all other aspects of a piece of writing.

This week, we will be sharing our full five-paragraph essay drafts in a class peer review. In order to make this process run smoothly, please be sure to follow these instructions:

Find your name on the peer review assignment list provided by your professor to determine whether you are in Group A, B, C, D, or E. There will be 3-4 people in each group, so depending on the number of students in the class, there may be fewer or more groups.

Once you have located your instructor's post naming your assigned group (and no later than Wednesday):

Join that discussion area by replying to the group post your instructor made. Then, attach your most recently revised draft as your initial post. This may be the draft you submitted to your instructor in Week 6, or you may have made changes since then and will wish to post your most updated copy.

In that main post, also compose a good paragraph offering information about your draft.

The current state of your draft

Your plans to add/change/remove content

Your revision plans

At least two substantive questions for the peers who will review your draft- These questions should be related to where you would most like assistance. Example: In my body paragraphs, what kinds of additional, engaging supporting details could I use?

Be sure to ask your professor if you have any questions about the peer review process.

Follow-Up Post Instructions

You must reply to one peer in your group with a full review of your peer's draft.

Find the peer who has posted after you in terms of time.

Read the attached essay and the comments your peer left to accompany the draft.

Download and complete the Peer Review Sheet.

Return your completed Peer Review Worksheet as an attachment in a response post to your peer. This must be completed no later than Friday night. The reason your peer review is due earlier in the week than other discussion replies is that your classmate must have enough time to utilize your feedback.

Continue to check into your group Discussion area in the event your peers pose any follow-up questions.
