Peer Editing is defined as helping someone your age or in your class to revise, edit, and improve their writing. Before you can complete those steps one must remember three key tools to peer editing which are compliments, suggestions and corrections. Compliments are necessary because you want to maintain a positive atmosphere while assisting as well as to show the positive sides of your peers paper. Suggestions are an ideal way for the editor to not only show errors but to relate the issues across to their peers. Successfully giving suggestions allows the process of correction to begin.
Corrections include revising, editing, and improvement of one's paper. Revising is a tool that can be used to correct spelling and grammar issues, as well as, to allow your peer to go more in depth on the subject at hand making ones work ready for editing. Editing is the process of allowing one to think of different ways to convey the information being written and making sure one's assignment is ready for presentation or is acceptable. Following these key tools will allow the process of peer editing to have taken place and to also be effective.
