Capstone in Applied Practice II

Peer Review

This week, you will conduct a thorough and thoughtful peer review of a classmate’s introduction and literature review that will be assigned by your instructor. The purpose of the peer review is to strengthen your writing. You will also learn how to provide constructive and communicative feedback and to respond to feedback on your own work. The concept of peer reviewing is not to grade the paper but to add constructive feedback to the assigned classmate’s paper in order to help strengthen his or her work.

By the due date assigned post your introduction and literature review to the Discussion Area for a classmate to review (reviews will be assigned by your course instructor).

By the due date assigned, conduct a thorough and thoughtful classmate review. You may use track changes and add formative comments throughout the document. At the end of the document, give 2–3 paragraphs of summative feedback on the paper. Post this document to your classmate’s discussion thread.

By the end of the week review your classmate’s feedback on your introduction and literature review. If you agree with the recommended changes, incorporate them in the document in Week 10. Post a response for the classmate. Ensure that you incorporate the rationale for any of the changes that you did not include or clarifications that the classmate may have asked for. Of course, in any peer review process, it is always nice to start with a simple “Thank you” to your classmate for taking the time to review and evaluate your work.
