Editing teaches students to critique their own writing and to identify areas in which they need clarification or assistance. Peer editors can provide that assistance: First, the writer reads the paper to a peer editor while the editor listens. The peer editor then summarizes the paper. Next, the editor evaluates the paper, sharing with the writer an analysis of salient features of the writing that might guide a revision or lead to improvement. Then the peer editor and the writer brainstorm ways to improve the paper. T-what you like; A-ask questions; G-give suggestions.
