Draft Workshop for 2.1

In this draft workshop, you will read a group member 2.1 essay twice, posting comments on strengths of the essay, opportunities for improvements, and questions. Follow the steps below to complete the assignment:

1. Make sure the group member has his/her essay posted in his/her blog. If not, help him/her get it posted. You should respond to a different group member than in the 2.2 workshop.
2. Have a Word doc open to take notes in positive, negative and question columns, or a piece of paper handy to do the same.
3. Read the essay all the way through quickly.
4. Make notes on your initial impression in a couple of sentences.
5. Read the essay again, making notes on things that work well (in the positive column), things that need to be revised (in the negative column), and things about which you have questions.
6. Post these reflections as a comment to writer's blog post.
