I found this to be a very productive exercise on improving my revision and drafting skills. I really took the time to figure out what was going wrong grammatically and simply did not make sense to the reader. The peer revisions are really what made the most difference. I do not think that my writing has been critiqued before turning in a final copy for at least four years. I found that my writing definitely has some consistent flaws and quirks that will be hard to break but are now easily recognizable. It was also interesting to focus directly on the grammatical problems within my paragraphs that caused larger issues in the transitions and presentation of information. It was nice to be able to identify and fix a problem relatively quickly without agonizing over why the argument, not the actual text, wasn't working.
