Peer-Review Idea for FYC Teaching

Writer: Nilima MowNilima Mow

Since I'm planning my first online peer-review class, I thought to share it with you. I will highly appreciate your comments and suggestion on it. I'll be pleased to get some more ideas about how I can make the peer review class more effective for my students. Here is what I planned so far for my students.


My students are required to submit their rough draft and post a comment that explains what they need the most help with from their peer-review partner.


Peer-review instructions for my students:


Give line-by-line feedback to your peer's draft along with any issues the writer asks you to address.

Consider these questions below while peer-reviewing:


  • Who is the audience and what is the purpose of this piece of writing? Consider offering a suggestion if either the audience or purpose is not clearly established.

  • What do you see as the writer’s main point in this draft?

  • Which part of the draft interests you the most? Why?

  • Where do you feel you would like more detail or explanation? Where do you need less?

  • Do you find any parts unclear, confusing, or undeveloped? Mention those.


Furthermore, I'd like you to look at the following:



  • Consider the relationship between the introduction and the conclusion. Is the introduction giving you an overall idea about the essay and well enough to lead you through the paper? Is the conclusion summing up everything following the introduction?

  • Ensure that all sources in the essay are on Works Cited/Reference page.



After you and your partner have exchanged feedback, post a comment here that tells us what you will dedicate the most energy to during the revision process. You may choose from the following statements:



  1. clarifying my argument

  2. reorganizing my essay

  3. tailoring my essay to my audience

  4. doing more research

  5. polishing my grammar, punctuation, and citation
