Peer-Reviewing Experience

Last week, you had the chance to peer-review the essay of one of your classmates. That was probably the first time you had the chance to read, comment, and revise the work of a person with whom you normally share the academic life. Assess this peer-review activity, providing arguments and examples to support your reflections. Your response should certainly address the following questions (but not limited to them): a) How difficult was it for you to critique your classmate’s paper? b) What did you learn from the process you followed to review the paper? c) What did you learn from your classmate’s revision of your own paper?
