Summary of the Task
This Discussion is for the peer review feedback for the fourth week of class. You will post a draft of your Technical Description Project by September 13, and provide feedback to the members of your writing group by September 17 (end of the grace period).
Instructions
Step 1: Due by Thursday, September 13
Post the draft of your Technical Description Project, and ask your group to look at anything you are trying to improve or anything you are worried about. Let them know the kind of advice you need. You can either upload your draft as an attachment or share a link to a Google Doc. Be sure that you have set Google Doc permissions so that anyone with the link can comment. (If you are late submitting a draft, your group may not have time to provide feedback.)
Step 2: Due by Monday, September 17 (end of the grace period)
Provide feedback by replying to the drafts of the other members of your writing group. Use the information on the Writing Groups page to provide constructive feedback that will help your group members make concrete improvements to their drafts.
As you provide feedback, look for ways to say something new that will help the writer. You can incorporate comments that others in your group have made as well.
Assessment
I grade your peer review work based on completion, using two general questions:
- Did the person submit a draft for the item to their writing group?
- Did the person respond constructively to the drafts of all group members?
If the answer to both questions is “Yes,” you will earn a Complete (signified by a checkmark in Canvas Grades). If the answer to either question is “No,” you will earn an Incomplete (signified by an X in Canvas Grades). Peer Feedback is graded after the Grace Period ends, and it cannot be revised or completed after the Grace Period.
