brainstorm ideas about the topic. Come up with four ideas about the
topic.

sentence.

Checklist
Peer Editing
• Why peer review?
Also….
• Learn how to read carefully, with attention to the details of
a piece of writing (whether their own or another writer's);
• Learn how to strengthen their writing by taking into
account the responses of actual and anticipated readers;
• Make the transition from writing primarily for themselves
or for an instructor to writing for a broader audience-a key
transition for students as they learn to write university-
level papers and as they prepare for post-graduate work;
• Learn how to formulate and communicate constructive
feedback on a peer's work;
• Learn how to gather and respond to feedback on their own
work.
