Peer Feedback for Friday

Type your response in letter form, 2 pgs. double spaced. Be sure to include both names.
BRING TWO COPIES.

General questions

What works well? What could use work? What suggestions do you have for further revisions?

Specific questions
Purpose: Does there appear to be a clear purpose to the portfolio, based on these essays? How would you summarize that purpose, based on what you have read?

Writer (ethos): What image of the writer is presented here? What kind of person do you imagine the writer to be, based on what the writer says here and how s/he says it?

Audience (pathos): What in these essays seem particularly well-written for the intended audience and what could be tweaked to attend even more to the audience?

Claims (logos): Which claims are strongest? Which need strengthening? What might the writer add to the portfolio to make these claims stronger? Where do you see the writer backing up claims using the portfolio materials and where else might this happen?

You might also re-read the last assignment and use the questions listed there as a starting point.

I would like to submit that whoever got my essay is getting screwed, because I only brought the first one. I beg clemency on his/her behalf. All hail the almighty page requirement!
