Peer evaluations have proven to be one of the most beneficial and impactful methods of improvement. It is also one of the hardest things to do, as a peer evaluator walks a thin line between constructive criticism and harsh opinion. Nevertheless, you might be surprised at how helpful the advice of your classmates can be.
For this assignment, you are to evaluate the rough drafts of two different classmates based on the provided rubric below.
To retrieve these rough drafts, you will need to return to “The Rough Draft” forum in week five of this course.
