During Tuesday's class we got together and shared our papers. We are all working on different subjects and we all have somewhat different writing styles so I found it to be pretty helpful to get some insite on my paper.
I got a lot of help with changing up a few sentences or phrases that sounded awkward to the reader. Along with that my peers made a few grammer corrections such as commas and incorrect spelling. I think it is always helpful to have a new set of eyes go over your paper. They always seem to catch the mistakes that you miss from reading the paper too many times in your own head.
I basically gave the same kind of corrections to my peers as well. Again grammer and spelling errors, along with a few mechanical things. There was some repetition in one paper, and citation errors in the others.
Overall I thought that meeting as a group and going over our papers was helpful. I got to tell them what to look for and what I needed help with, and they delivered.

I think it is always helpful to have someone else look at your paper that way they can find the mistakes that you usually over read.
