Instructions: Please upload your proposal per Nancy’s instructions in class so they can be easily shared with your peers.
As a reviewer, please remember to…
Concentrate on your own response to the paper rather than rendering judgment. Use the first person (e.g., “I hear…”, “I didn’t understand…”, “I’m confused about…”, “I’d like to hear more about…”, “I couldn’t follow…”).
Avoid using the second person (e.g., “you should”, “you need to”, “you ought to”). Responses are a clear guide because they enable the writer to rethink the issues on his/her own. Your responses (1st person) are easier to listen to and accept, and in thus in the end more effective, than your judgments (2nd person).
Peer review questions to answer:
- Is the first paragraph an adequate statement of the problem statement? Did you know from the first paragraph clearly the gap they were trying to fill?
- Did each paragraph/section add to the argument/ the need for this in the world?
- Did the writer support this in a convincing manner?
- Is there sufficient detail in the schedule to convince you that this project is feasible?
- What was most effective about the proposal? What needs the most revision?
