Peer Review

I normally loathe group work, but peer reviewing is another story. Just having a 5 minute conversation with someone about a paper helps make the assignment feel like something that I've acknowledged as part of my life, rather than a task to be agonized over and then forgotten. Also, the suggestions of a friend or classmate encourage me to think of improvements as a much less daunting task. Looking at classmates essays also helps give me an idea what mine might look like. This way I'm less intimidated by the blank piece of paper in front of me. Marisa and Steve were very helpful! Good stuff.
