As far as peer response is concerned, I have absolutely no experience having it done by anyone other than my wife. I have never read another person’s writing and given my critique or suggestions of how it should be written. As I watched A Peer Response Demonstration (2010) video, I found it very informative. I could see myself like the first person in the video. Like her, I wouldn’t want to be too critical because I would feel bad hurting someone’s feelings. I guess that is why I haven’t…

that I began incubating throughout the entire day. That night I had used my outline and made a really rough draft of my paper. The day of peer review I was prepared to have a lot of feedback about how I needed to use more supporting details and finish my paper because I only had one-third of my paper done. The feedback that I received from my peer review was somewhat helpful. This is because some of the feedback that I received was unhelpful feedback that I knew that I needed to complete such as…
Peer-review processes The international health journals are known for publishing articles that have been peer-reviewed. (Oxford journals, 2015d).

When the professor told me that I needed to do my essay in MLA format I get lost. I never heard that. I do the entire essay…

After further analysis, two themes that seem to be visible throughout this book, as the young girl ventures on…
One of the first concepts I gained from this class was the idea of the rhetorical triangle. The rhetorical triangle consists of three points, much like the geometric triangle. The points of the triangle include audience, speaker, and text which were surrounded by the hypothetical circle of context. In high school we just barely scraped the surface of each of these topics but in English 101 we actually learned how to find each of these in text and how to effectively compose about them. In the…
