Peer Review

I thought the peer review process was extremely helpful.  It really opened my eyes to different angles in my writing that would have otherwise gone unnoticed.  It allowed for better analysis and the construction more cohesive points.  I got some really good feedback.  People pointed out exactly what was weak in my argument and needed more support, and what needed to be clarified.  This was helpful because it led me to think more about what would be clear to my audience.  There is no part of the peer review process that I found unhelpful.  I always appreciated the variety of comments given to me.  In editing and reviewing others' papers, and seeing what worked and didn't work in their writing, I was able to learn how to fix or avoid similar errors in my own work.  I will look forward to the next time we do peer review.
