Blog Post 15: Peer review and revised thesis

Revise your thesis statement 

1. After Friday's in-class workshop, Blog Post 15: "Peer Review and Revised Thesis Statement." Discuss how the peer review process helped you, both by reviewing other's papers and the comments on your own. Revise your thesis statement according to your new understanding and copy it into the blog post.

2. Find two other students who do not yet have comments on their revised thesis statement (students not in your in-class editing group), and tell them what you expect their QRGs to be about from their thesis statements. Because we know what we are trying to say, we as writers often read into our own writing what isn't really clear. Fresh eyes can help point out where the thesis statement fails to accurately forecast the content and argument of the QRG.
