07 Peer Evaluation Process

The most important point of the peer evaluation process is to make sure that the person who's paper you are going to be looking over, get's their paper back with important changes that will be beneficial to their final draft. The first things that I look for whenever I peer review documents are spelling, grammar, and punctuation. These are the easiest things to accidentally mess up and usually the easiest to spot as well. While looking for these mistakes it's also important to try to look at each paragraph as its own mini document. See if everything that they are presenting in the paragraph makes sense, and belongs where it is. Sometimes, a peice of information might be better served in a different section of the paper, or perhaps a particular sentence could be stated in a better way. For papers like this with a lot of sources being used, it's also important to make sure that they have properly used APA format when putting in citations. As I've found from writing this paper, this can sometimes be very difficult depending on what kind of source you are drawing from. For instance, there were many different methods to citing internet sources that I never knew about, depending on where on the site the information you're citing is.
