The peer editing really helped me and i think i will be able to make my paper much better because of it.

I agree. Just like last time, peer editing helped me see mistakes I would have never seen on my own. I hope we get some time tomorrow too to go through some more editing.

I liked the peer editing, very helpful, and nice to see how others handle the same subject. It is so much easier to see where the other person needs to do this or that, as opposed to seeing the weak spots in your own paper.

Even though I came to class with a rough ROUGH copy I still got a lot of helpful ideas and by reading other peoples papers I notice common mistakes between my paper and theirs that I wouldnt notice just reading mine. However, I am still confused on the thesis for the paper.

I've always been a fan of peer editing. It really helped me organize my rough draft today, that's for sure! it's also helping me re-write it.... completely. haha. I've decided to take a new route in my essay, but keeping it reasonably within 5 pages seems like it'll be more difficult than the actual writing. :/

I really enjoy peer editing because it helps my to get other opions about my paper, and gives me direction.
