The Peer Review for the CI Outline
Be sure you have your partner’s outline! You will want to
complete the tasks on the next few slides in detail. Please be
sure you write your name at the bottom of the first page so
that you get credit for your review!
First, take a minute and carefully read
through your partner’s paper . . .
Peer Review of the CI Outline
Choose a highlighter
and make a key
(highlight the word
MORE at the top of
the page). Go through
the outline and
highlight any sections
where you want to
know more about the
topic/section.
Choose another
highlighter color and
make a key (highlight the
word LESS at the top of
the page). Go through
the outline and highlight
any sections where you
think the writer needs to
tone it down because it
has too much
information.
Peer Review of the CI Outline
Choose another highlighter color and
highlight any words that you don’t know what
they mean. Remember, some topics come
with jargon – we want to be sure we clarify!
Using that same highlighter color squiggle
over any awkward spots/grammar
errors/weird issues you want to bring to the
attention of the writer.
Peer Review of the CI Outline
I doubt . . .
Go to the back of one of the outline pages
and at the top write: I doubt.
Skim through your partner’s paper and make a list of
at least five different claims that you can doubt
that the writer makes. In essence, you are making a
list of every argument you can make against the
writer. (It doesn’t matter whether you believe or
note – look to poke some holes in the argument!)
Peer Review of the CI Outline
Meet individually with your partner and complete the
following:
Go through your I Doubt list for your partner. Brainstorm
with your partner potential support areas or ideas to help
make those arguments even stronger.
(One caveat: it doesn’t matter whether you actually
believe or even doubt each other’s arguments – you are
just role playing this discussion and possible nay-sayers
to help strengthen each other’s work.)
A few documents to
help you . . .
I have hard copies of both of these for you!
