Peer review. This week we dug deeper into this
autobiographical essay process and I found myself truly enjoying the
assignment. I love to write, especially creatively, and what better way to
creatively write than about yourself? Our assignment was to mainly sit and
write the first page of our essay and as I started the assignment, I found
myself finishing the entire essay. I enjoy this assignment because I love
working with peers and I love the fact that I'll be able to take their feedback
and better myself. I thoroughly enjoy editing and reviewing my peers work; I
was the chief editor of the school news paper in high school, so it brings back
flashes of high school.
I felt that with the first step of the peer review it went
extremely well, for the most part. My group members went about taking their
time and providing feedback that will eventually help with the finished product
of my essay. The only difficult part of this assignment was developing a thesis
statement in an autobiographical essay. I told my story in a sense of powerful
and meaningful writing, and still failed to develop a thesis. Hopefully my
peers can help me with this problem.
