Understanding the Essay Assignment<\/h2>\n<p>This one may seem like a no-brainer, but it\u2019s super important not to read your peer\u2019s essay draft without fully <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/essay-assignment\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">understanding the assignment yourself<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, by the time you\u2019re ready to write a peer review, you should have already started on the same essay project and have a pretty solid understanding of what your teacher is looking for in a successful paper.<\/p>\n<p>This includes understanding the goals of your essay assignment. What <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/6-popular-types-essays-survival-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">kind of essay<\/a> is it, and what is the purpose? What should the writer try to accomplish in this essay, or what is the writer trying to make the reader understand?<\/p>\n<p>Below are some examples of common college essay formats, and you can find examples of them all in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-examples\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kibin essay example database<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-examples\/personal-narrative-essay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Narrative<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-examples\/compare-and-contrast-essay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Compare and Contrast<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-examples\/analytical-essay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Analytical<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-examples\/argumentative-and-persuasive-essays\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Argumentative<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The second part of understanding the assignment includes any guidelines your teacher has specifically defined for the essay. Note whether your classmate is meeting all of these requirements as you read the paper you&#8217;re reviewing.<\/p>\n<h2>2. Following Instructions<\/h2>\n<p>Peer reviews can occur in different formats, and your teacher may have different expectations than someone else\u2019s. So make sure you know what your teacher expects from you before diving into this assignment.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes you\u2019ll be given a checklist or assignment sheet that you\u2019re expected to follow, or you may find this information in your course textbook or workbook. If not, it\u2019s a good idea to ask for clarification if any part of the expectations are confusing.<\/p>\n<p>You may also be expected to take a copy of your classmate\u2019s essay home for in-depth review, in which case you should plan to spend a quality amount of time on it on your own.<\/p>\n<p>Or you may have a peer workshop in which you\u2019ll be expected to read the essay, take notes, and come to class prepared to give your input aloud to your classmate while the teacher oversees the review session.<\/p>\n<p>In many cases, peer review will require both of the above, so be prepared to spend time reviewing that essay either way!<\/p>\n<p>If you don\u2019t have a strict set of guidelines but want to follow a proven method for peer reviewing, try this <a href=\"https:\/\/owl.excelsior.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2016\/03\/CARES-Peer-Review-Feedback-Form.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">handy worksheet<\/a> that uses the CARES method.<\/p>\n<h2>3.

comments and suggestions right away, but let\u2019s slow down a bit.<\/p>\n<p>First things first: you need to read your classmate\u2019s essay in its entirety.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to fully read the essay draft because providing feedback right away can make you less objective and thus a less effective reviewer.<\/p>\n<p>But when you read the entire essay, you familiarize yourself with your classmate\u2019s writing style and get an idea of the points your classmate&#8217;s trying to make in the paper.<\/p>\n<p>During this full reading, focus on what your classmate is trying to say, whether the writing is clear and easy to understand, and whether it follows the overall guidelines of the assignment.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, here are the questions you should think about for three types of essays:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/tag\/narrative-essay\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Narrative essay<\/a>: Does it tell a story?<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/tag\/compare-and-contrast-essay\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Compare and contrast essay<\/a>: Does it effectively compare one item to another?<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/tag\/argumentative-essays\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Argument essay<\/a>: Does it have a clear thesis and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/how-to-write-a-paragraph-supports-thesis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">support that thesis<\/a> throughout the essay?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You\u2019ll also want to think about whether the essay follows a coherent structure from beginning to end.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Are the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/introduction-paragraph-how-to-fix-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">introduction<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/anatomy-perfect-essay-paragraph-structure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">body<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/essay-conclusion\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">closing paragraph(s)<\/a> clearly defined and separate?<\/li>\n<li>Do the ideas <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/good-transition-words-can-improve-writing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flow naturally<\/a> from one point to the next?<\/li>\n<li>Is anything left underdeveloped or unexplained that would improve your understanding of what the writer is trying to say?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t<div class=\"blog-cta-simple\">\n\t\t<div

Doing a Rough Review<\/h2>\n<p>Just like you would write a rough draft of any college-level essay, you should also do a \u201crough\u201d version of your peer review that focuses on clarity and whether the writer is meeting the assignment goals.<\/p>\n<p>This step includes rereading the essay and\u2014as you go along\u2014highlighting or underlining sections that are unclear or underdeveloped. Add notes in the margins for each mark you make so that you\u2019ll have a handy guide for when you type up your feedback.<\/p>\n<p>This is also a good time to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/7-grammar-rules-everyone-learn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">practice your grammar skills<\/a>. If you see any grammatical mistakes or spelling errors as you read through the paper, be sure to circle these.<\/p>\n<p>Are there any awkward phrases, sentence fragments, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/punctuation-rules-you-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">punctuation errors<\/a>, run-ons, or incomplete ideas? Circle these as well, and jot down the reason you\u2019re marking these sections.<\/p>\n<p>But there&#8217;s more to it than grammar. Make sure you also focus on these areas:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Start with the first paragraph. Is there a solid <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/what-is-a-hook-sentence\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hook<\/a>? When you finish reading it, do you want to read more? Why or why not? Write down your reason.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Can you easily identify the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/how-to-make-a-thesis-statement-the-easy-way-infographic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">thesis<\/a>\u2014the point that the writer is trying to make\/argue? Is there anything that makes the thesis unclear? Why?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>How well is the thesis\/main point supported in each body paragraph? If it&#8217;s an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/writing-an-argumentative-essay\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">argument essay<\/a>, what kind of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/3-types-of-essay-support-that-prove-you-know-your-stuff\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">support<\/a>&nbsp;is provided? Does the writer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/put-quote-essay-like-pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">use quotes<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/apply-craap-test-essay-sources\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scholarly sources<\/a>? Do the quotes adequately back up what the writer is saying?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Are there any points where the author seems to lose <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/how-to-narrow-a-topic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">focus<\/a> and goes off on a tangent? Is there anything that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/reverse-outline-use-one\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">doesn\u2019t seem to fit<\/a> with the essay or support the main point? Where does this happen, specifically, and what do you find difficult about it?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>5.

fill out a worksheet or type up a formal response to turn in for a grade or to give to your classmate.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, you\u2019ll want to make sure that your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/types-essay-feedback-address\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">feedback<\/a> is clear and easy to understand so that your classmate gets the most out of your peer review.<\/p>\n<p>Below are some tips for providing great feedback.<\/p>\n<h3>Be detailed<\/h3>\n<p>The least helpful thing you can say is \u201cGood job!\u201d or \u201cThis paper was good but needs work.\u201d Instead, what you want to do is tell the writer specifically what is unclear or not working for you.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some key phrases you can use to be more specific in your review:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cI\u2019m not sure that this example supports your thesis because\u2026\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cIt is a little unclear what you\u2019re trying to say here because\u2026\u201d<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThis paragraph seems to go off-topic from your main point because\u2026\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The examples use the word \u201cbecause,\u201d but this doesn\u2019t mean you have to write your own comments like this. \u201cBecause\u201d is there just to remind you that, for each comment you make, you need to tell the writer <i>why <\/i>you feel the way you do about a specific part of the essay.<\/p>\n<p>As a rule, any time you make a comment on a classmate\u2019s paper\u2014even positive ones\u2014be sure to reinforce that comment with supporting reasoning.<\/p>\n<p>A side benefit to doing this is that it also gives you practice for when you have to write your own college papers that require support and evidence to back up your idea.<\/p>\n<h3>See things differently<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/astronaut-11080_1920.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\"

strong. Then raise questions you might have about the argument that the writer may not have considered. By provoking further thought, you can help the writer revise for a stronger argument.<\/p>\n<h3>Edit your work (always)<\/h3>\n<p>Part of making sure that the writer understands your comments includes writing clearly yourself. Your responses to the writer&#8217;s work should be well-organized and follow the normal paragraph structure of 3-5 sentences.<\/p>\n<p>Start with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/topic-sentences\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">topic sentence<\/a>, and follow it with supporting sentences in the paragraph body that stay on-topic.<\/p>\n<p>Avoid rambling, and correct any run-ons, fragments, and other grammar\/style errors. It\u2019s okay for your rough draft to have mistakes, but what you turn in to the writer\/professor needs to be proofread thoroughly\u2014their understanding (and your grade) depend on it.<\/p>\n<p>You can edit by yourself, but two heads are better than one. Ask a friend for help, visit your campus writing lab, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-editing-proofreading\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">have the experts at Kibin edit your work<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>6. Staying Positive and Giving Constructive Criticism<\/h2>\n<p>A lot of peer editing and review involves looking for ways the writer can improve the essay you&#8217;re reviewing. But you don\u2019t want to overload the writer with <i>just <\/i>critical feedback.&nbsp;A little encouragement goes a long way, so it\u2019s a good idea to balance the negative with the positive.<\/p>\n<p>Peer reviewing is usually pretty new to everyone <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/writing-in-college-new-school-year\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">taking a college-level writing course for the first time<\/a>. So most students are pretty nervous\u2014on both sides\u2014about how to both <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/peer-edit-essay-strategies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">give and receive criticism<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The writer is probably worried about negative feedback, and the reviewers are probably worried about giving criticism for fear that the writer will roast them when it comes time for their own peer review.<\/p>\n<p>But not to worry!<\/p>\n<p>If you approach this assignment with the idea that it is meant to help the writer, then you\u2019re already well on your way to writing a fair and positive review. So how do you provide the balance and stay constructive?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920.jpg\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6748\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"peer editing\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-6748 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20500%20281%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E\" alt=\"peer editing\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg%22%20viewBox%3D%220%200%20500%20281%22%3E%3C%2Fsvg%3E 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920.jpg 1920w\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.kibin.com\/essay-writing-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/smiley-2979107_1920-1024x575.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Start positive<\/h3>\n<p>Find one good thing to say about the beginning paragraph so that you begin by encouraging the writer.
