Revision/Proofreading Workshop
This is our last chance to help each other out on our essays. The seminar instructions say this:
“The class will work as a group and help one another revise and polish for final submission.”
(I added the italics.)
Polish means to proofread. So let’s submit some paragraphs or sections of your essays, and let’s both revise (look at the big things) and polish (look at the little things) these for one another.
