Visual Peer Review

0 1 47

Bring in a pile of different-colored highlighters for peer review. You can have students use these to visually identify elements of a draft. For example, students might highlight summary in one color and analysis in another or they might highlight the quotations. With this strategy students can see at a glance what they’re doing in their drafts.
