What is the difference between microediting and macroediting?
What will be an ideal response?
Macroediting challenges the "big picture" of the document: its meaning, organization, and format. It
is the last opportunity for significant rewriting. Microediting is a sentence-by- sentence doublecheck
of accuracy, spelling, grammar, and style. By starting with the last sentence of the document
and working backward, the writer is defamiliarized with the document and able to take a more
objective view.
