complete the larger task of writing the report. \u00a0I believe it is progressing nicely. \u00a0I am slightly concerned since I do not have a clear picture on how it will all come together but once I gather the data, review example reports and begin my own report, I am sure I will feel more confident.<\/p>\n<p>The peer review of my partner&#8217;s formal report proposal was my favourite assignment in this unit. \u00a0At first I thought it would be a hard exercise since my partner is a stellar student. \u00a0Knowing that, however, encouraged me to think deeply about how I could help him improve his work. \u00a0The suggestions I came up with are things that not only help him but can also strengthen\u00a0my own report \u2014 \u00a0a fruitful happenstance.<\/p>\n<p>Through the peer review process, my partner helped me see areas in which I could bolster my proposal by citing a specific consequence\u00a0of the problem as well as supply a bit more concrete information on how to solve the problem. \u00a0In addition, he was able to help smooth out the small grammatical errors my tired eyes missed.<\/p>\n<p>Peer reviewing has largely impacted my view of writing. \u00a0Not only does my peer&#8217;s suggestion improve my work, my recommendations\u00a0also allow me to think about writing as a whole and take that experience and bring it back into my work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span
