OpEd process

So I'm posting about what I thought of the process we used to write our Opinion Editorials.  I liked the process very much; I thought it effectively got us to take a serious look at the editing process.
We wrote our first draft, then had a conference with Chris (our professor) and he gave us his comments.  Then we wrote our second draft and took it into the writing center and got their input; we also did a peer review having each person read and comment on another person's Opinion Editorial.  After making our third and final draft, we posted it to our blogs.
I think this was an effective way to get very different sources of opinions and it effectively helped us to think about new possibilities for our Opinion Editorials.

  1. Peer review was great, as was my conference with Chris. I didn't really enjoy the writing lab, and will probably only go next time for extra credit. the wait was ridiculous, and it was overall not very helpful.
