Peer Review: Capturing Your UTA Experience (Resume)

Purpose

Providing peer review is your opportunity to critique and provide feedback to others that can help them to improve their work and give them perspective on what others valued or thought worked well. Conducting peer reviews may help you generate ideas for how to improve your work, so peer reviewers are likely to benefit from the process as well.

Directions

1. This peer review is anonymous. You must complete the peer review to earn credit for your submission of the Capturing Your UTA Experience in Your Resume assignment.
2. Read the submission assigned to you in preparation for your written comments. You will want to be sure that you provide a review that is thoughtful, respectful, and specific/descriptive.
3. Identify specific examples of what was done well (strengths) and what could be done to improve the submission (improvements). 
4. Describe your overall impression of the content. Is the content compelling? Does it adequately convey qualities/strengths/activities/accomplishments likely to be valued by others? From reviewing your classmate's worksheet, do you see any opportunities to highlight their experience that were missed?
5. Use "track changes" and comment boxes when conducting your review. You also can type additional comments on your classmate's assignment, but please use "track changes" so that what you wrote is obvious.
6. Submit your review online in Webcourses.
