11/14 Draft Feedback Discussion (All Portfolio 2 Documents)

Instructions

Step 1: Due by Thursday, November 8
Post the draft of all three of your documents (your short proposal, your white paper, and your research poster), 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 drafts as attachments or share links to Google Docs. Be sure that you have set Google Docs permissions so that anyone with the link can comment. If you do not post all three drafts by noon on Sunday, November 18, you earn an Incomplete for the activity.

Step 2: Due by Monday, November 19 (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. You are not obligated to provide feedback for any drafts posted after noon on Sunday, November 18. 

Assessment

I grade your peer review work based on completion, using two general questions:

• Did the person submit a drafts for all three items to their writing group?
• Did the person respond constructively to the drafts of all group members who submitted drafts by noon on Sunday?

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.
