Now I will pass around a sign-up sheet for Optional Conferencing with me. In the
interest of keeping time open for students who really need help, please do not
sign up for a time if you feel your draft is in pretty good shape—you can always e-
mail if you have minor questions.
 If you do sign up for a time, please bring a hard copy of your draft to the
conference, with specific questions.
On Thursday, I will go over how to include charts and tables in your essay, including
how to properly format and caption them. The second half of the class will be a
voluntary revision session. If you plan on staying for the second half, please bring
your laptop with your draft on it. I will be present to answer questions and provide
revision feedback.
Now let’s proceed to Peer Review in your Workshop Group.
 Sit with your group and decide who will be the first and second responder for
each draft
 Share your draft with your group members using Google Drive
 Have a brief, informal five-minute discussion of what you are each looking for
from your peer feedback
 Please be prepared to give each draft at least 20 minutes of attention (I will let
you know about timing)—take your time and do not rush to finish

 Please feel free to converse with each other during the review—questions,
clarifications, compliments, etc.
