The Revision Today you are going to be going over your partner’s paper with an extremely fine toothed comb. The twist is: you’re not really reading it. It’s proofreading time, where content has no place next to that misplaced comma. Use this list of marks to make your proofreading suggestions. These marks are fairly standard across the country. If you go into the writing lab next year, wherever that may be, they will likely use these marks (or something like them) when making proofreading suggestions to your paper. Using standard markings ensures that time spent proofreading is time spent proofreading and not deciphering the meaning of poorly drawn hieroglyphics in the margins. Directions: Find your paper in the pile of printed out theses and hand it to your partner. Then, take a pen and start nitpicking. Look for punctuation errors, spelling errors, double spaces, quotation mark mistakes, capitalizations, numbers as words vs numbers, extra words, redundant points, run on sentences, etc… Use the handout to get the markings standardized.

First and foremost: share your draft with Lori and Grayson. We’re doing a proofreading task tomorrow that needs your paper printed, so get it to us so we can get ‘er done. How do you push yourself to focus on tedious tasks? Think about when you’re at work, when you’re here, when you have chores, basically anytime it’s monotonous yet requires attention. If you’ve never had to do…well, sweet summer child…
The Task Just like the starter indicated above, today we will be going through citations, a top 5 crowd pleaser. You’re going to be following this handout for today’s task. Practice Go through the examples on the handout and indicate if they are done correctly or not. If not, suggest how to change them to be correct. Partner 1 Send your paper to the person on your left. They will then use the find and replace function (command/control F) and put a parentheses “(“ into the box. This will highlight all the in text citations like lights on a christmas tree. Then, you’ll have to read each setup and citation to determine if they have done the punctuation correctly. Leave a comment or use suggesting mode to make changes so they can see where they made mistakes. Partner 2 Send your paper to the person on your right this time. They’re going to go through your bibliography. As the reviewer, you get to be absolutely ruthless. Go after every single punctuation error, indentation mistake, spelling question, anything that an expert nitpicker would find atrocious and bring to your attention. Leave a comment or use suggestion mode to make clear every little problem you find. The Return Take your paper back. Look over your comments. Address them. Lots of these little mistakes happen without intention and are extremely difficult to find on your own, so thank your partners for dressing you down and laying bare all your faults. Better they be found now than when we’re grading them and get to take points off for each little mistake. Work Priorities for Today
