Student Peer Review of Writing

A few things we've been doing at Douglas in terms of talking about writing with other faculty. I'm afraid I missed your session Roberta, but I hope this fits the topic: I set up a meeting of writing instructors across our campus who wanted to talk about Student Peer Review of Writing. This ended up including faculty from English, Communications, ESL,Developmental English and Learning Centre. We talked about objectives, pitfalls, strategies and best practices. People were really enthused about the event and asked to continue the conversation in a future meeting. We had another meeting with just the English faculty who wanted to know about strategies for giving feedback on writing online. I am leading a PD session on writing good assignment instructions coming up soon.
