After viewing my peer review of my classmates, I determined that my main focus revolves around content. For example, with the research based argumentative paper I looked for a lot of proven facts. After the facts were explained, I was looking for a point of view from the writer that explained their facts effectively. Also, I looked for the tone of the paper; while reading I like to feel the emotion of the writer to have an interpretation of how they felt while writing their work. If a paper does not have any emotion, a writer will not be able to prove their point effectively. In the review, I asked simple questions that seem the need to be answer, such as what caused this affect and how did you feel in the situation. I like to suggest things that the writer can do to make the paper better so I suggest items that they can add to have a more effective paper. My comments speak to the situation of the paper because every paper is different, which means a different audience for each one of them. I liked focusing on the situation so the writer has a better understanding of how to edit the paper for he/her self. I feel that my comments shows a pattern of looking for sentenced that can be built upon and comments of the good and bad items of the paper. As a writer, I have learned that a reader wants detailed descriptions and a lot of elaboration. After writing my own peer review that was given to me I learned that if two people or more people highlighted the same sentence then that was a problem. That problem would have to be fixed before the second draft of writing given to the teacher because to keep the sentence and to have to teacher comment on the same issue is not good for the writer.
