Reading and critiquing a peer’s introductory paragraph was a great experience. I enjoyed being able to point out what was positive and what needed more work. What I realized when reading a peer’s post was that I needed to check my paragraph for redundancy! I know that I can be a victim to redundancy in many long papers that I write. The most important part that I took out of this experience was that I sometime’s need someone to proof read my writing before I turn it in. Getting second opinions can help me avoid grammar and spelling errors, and hear other viewpoints that may improve my writing.
