During class this week, we were given time to revise our rough drafts for our projects. It has been a while since I have written a rough draft, but making one made me remember that writing out our initial thoughts is important. We also participated in peer review, which is always nice because it's better to have another person's perspective on out work.
Having multiple methods for revision helps everyone improve their work. The more people who look at your work the better. Every person is able to read your rough draft differently and suggest different things. At the end of it all, the rough draft will be much better than when it was originally made.
Even though rough drafts are made to be revised, having people other than yourself proofread and make suggestions helps more than just simple revision. It makes it much easier to find the smaller mistakes in the rough draft, and all the time spent on revising will make the final draft all the better.
