Self-evaluation exercise
The self-evaluation exercise (SEE) is designed to help you think about ways in which you can improve your report so that you produce a polished, professional, persuasive final report. You will focus mainly on your written communication. However, you will find that by improving how you communicate your ideas, you will also improve, refine and develop the ideas themselves.
Between now and the submission of the final report we expect you to conduct the following four steps of self-evaluation of your draft report.
1. Referencing review
2. Formatting checklist
3. Rhetorical moves (AcaWriter)
4. Peer feedback
At a minimum we would expect you to complete all four steps on your draft that you submitted in Week 4.However, you are welcome (and encouraged) to revise your work between each step. For example you may upload a revised draft to AcaWriter, which you may develop further before getting peer feedback.
