Peer review essay

Each student will write a critique of another student's paper. The review essay will summarize the paper, identify the thesis, and offer suggestions for improvement applying principles covered during the semester. The review essay should help the paper's author improve the work in its final draft and demonstrate the reviewer's mastery of historical research and writing. The review essay should contain 750-1250 words. After the author presents the project to the class, the peer reviewer will lead discussion of the work.
