Peer Reviews & Presentations
Read aloud to revise for things like:
Avoid doing both at the same time
- Audience (is it clear for who you are writing)
Instead, focus on revising the higher-order issues (e.g. purpose, voice, clarity, organization, focus, development, etc.)
- Purpose (inform, entertain, persuade)
- Voice (tone, diction)
Editing (aka proofreading) takes care of the mechanics in your writing, while revising is best thought of as a creative process of "re-visioning" your first draft.
- Clarity
- Consistency
Second,
- Organization
- Development
Revising & editing are two separate functions of the writing process. It is important to save them for last and to do them separately.
Read aloud, from end to beginning,to edit for things like: spelling, punctuation, word choice, tone, voice (passive/active) sentence structure, sentence variation, etc.
If you would prefer to workshop your presentations, pay attention to the following.
A word on the presentations,
Presenter,
Give some overall feed back for the presentation itself; be thoughtful and honest. If there is a way that their presentation could be more effective, suggest it. Holding back (and being overly harsh/cautious) won't do your peer's any favors.
As an Audience Member,
You must attend each day of presentations in order to receive full points (missing the second day of presentations will reduce your presentation grade by 50%).
Does the literary explication hold water? [Literary explication is required of each assignment option] Are claims well supported; do the examples of literary terms make sense; is the visual translation coherent? If the answers to these questions aren't a clear "yes," suggest ways in which they can strengthen the delivery of their literary purpose.

Additionally,
- Speak for 5-10 minutes
- The use of handouts or audio/visual materials is optional (depending on your
- project option)
- The use of prepared discussion questions or audience activities is optional
- Take at least 2 minutes to respond to the questions of your audience (you may
- want to have prepared responses to anticipated questions in advance)
Are they easily understood? Try repeating the thesis or main purpose back to them. If this proves difficult, suggest a way in which they can make their presentation clearer or more focused.
- Be courteous and attentive
- Listen actively and take notes
- Be aware of details that pique your interest or disagree with you
