This peer review was not a new idea to me as I have done them in high school but having a set of requirements was something I have not done before. I had to look for specific things which opened my mind and made me think of what I could improve on and what elements I was missing myself. Reading other students essays helps me because I can use their writing technique and incorporate it into mine to strengthen my essay. Getting feedback on my essay is useful because I will know what I need to improve on and what others may think of my writing style.
