Reflection on Final Informative

            While reviewing my peers informative report I’ve learned I have so much more I need to fix about my essays. By looking at his writing styles/skills and comparing it to mine I felt like I needed to improve. After reading my peer’s draft I started looking back at my first draft I see that I really need to revise my essay. I believe peer review doesn’t just benefits the people you are reviewing but it also benefits yourself. As I read their essay you learn things I haven’t known before.

            Another benefit I gained from the collaborative peer review is increasing my critical analysis skill, I was able to find things that were confusing in his essays. Peer review also helps increase my writing skills by reading one’s paper I will learn to develop to write in a similar fashion as the paper I’ve read. The more peer reviews we do the more I can expand my knowledge on writing skills. After reading someone else’s flaws in their paper it makes it easier to find the flaws in my paper. While I was reading one’s paper I was able to find out why his/her paper was succeeding or why it wasn’t succeeding. Critical thinking was then used while I was revising my own draft by thinking why my paper is not good enough and what are the ways to fix it.
