BLOG ENTRY #15: What did you learn from your peer review projects about: The peer review projects were very helpful because we get a lot of feedback on our paper. It’s nice to have new eyes looking at your paper because it often gives you a different take on your paper instead of having the same people read it. They can only offer so much and may only see certain things that other people might miss.1) Writing and Editing in general: i have learned that people write in different ways and in ways that i would never think to do. everyone has their own style. Also that editing wasn’t absolute because i’m not an editor, i’m a college student so my editing skills were limited. 2) your actual research project, specifically: i thought my paper was horrible (which i still do at this point), but my peer reviewers liked it and think that it has a lot of potential. Also i need more sources!
