First Draft

Final Draft

My role: I got to the first draft a little late in the game, so I only got to add a few sentences here and there. During the feedback process, I made sure to take notes on things that we could improve on. This included taking other group’s work and marking what they did well. I was then able to go through and revise our first draft with the comments that our peers suggested. 

Change after peer review: Thankfully, we did not have to change our content too much. For the revision process, I went through and changed some sentences around to make the tone less promotional and more informative. Another big part of the changes post- peer review was making sure that there was continuity in perspective. As a group, we agreed that the release would make the most sense being written by a third party. There were also some formatting changes to make sure that the document fit on one page with appropriate text and graphics.
