A draft for peer editing

Submit your three body paragraphs only for peer editing!

The deadline for submitting your draft for classes that meet online is Tuesday (10/23) by 10 pm. Submit your draft in the Drop Box in the area for peer editing in the discussion group. The deadline for commenting on the drafts of others in your group is Thursday (10/25) by 11:59 pm.

Peer editing for the on ground will occur on Wednesday (10/24). Bring two printed copies of your three body paragraphs to class. Have them in hand as you walk in the door, and show up on time!

You can learn from peer editing in three ways: by seeing how others handled this assignment, by commenting carefully on the drafts of others using my peer editing questions, and by receiving thoughtful comments on your draft.

After peer editing, begin revising your draft right away. Most drafts will need significant revision! Ask questions about this assignment in the discussion group.
