Peer Edit

In high school, I wasn't so sure of Peer editing. Sometimes I would get a person who didn't care about the project so they wouldn't care to read my paper and would give it back to me saying it was perfect and I don't need to change anything. I hate that. No paper is flawless and that is especially true for your first draft. My paper may be good sometimes, but there is mistakes and I will admit that. TOday, gettting my paper peer edited did a little help for me. My partner told me that my paper was very good so it boosted my confidence. She also said there were parts that I should look at to make it flow better; this was the hard part for me because she didn't tell me where she got confused or anything. It's hard for me to notice what is confusing because it all happened to me so I know what I am talking about. I will reread my paper and hopefully see where it is confusing for others. On a good note, I felt is overall pretty helpful to peer edit. It gave me practice and made me open up my eyes to some good things or bad things on others papers that I could work in to my own paper.
