Title: Peer Reviews
Course: SOC 210 RTZ > Section: Research Project

So... once you turn in your paper for the peer review, you have to complete the peer review of another's paper by [Your scheduled date/time]. So the initial due date is on the calendar, and you are required to turn in your peer review by the assignment closing date.

Peer Review

Below are the instructions for the final paper. This is your peer review. If you have not provided a complete paper it will not be reviewed. This is a firm due date. Your peers require time to review and then meet with you so you have time to complete your first rough draft. PLEASE be sure to address each point on your peer review paper.

Don't forget to use our resources on the home page (be sure to include a peer review guide for students to utilize). These resources are my assessment guidelines. Understand them early on and come see me early on how to do this well. You are all able to do this if you plan and execute early. I am here to assist - COME SEE ME!

What a Peer Review can do to assist you in becoming a better writer and critical thinker.

You should...

- 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

Take the process seriously as a reviewer and having another review your document. This process is a learning tool and value to all who gets involved.
