    The document provides a peer review worksheet to evaluate essays based on their title, introduction, thesis, summary, issues/themes, sources, assessment, criteria, conclusion, organization, diction/tone, and grammar/formatting.

    The essay is evaluated on whether it has a clear introduction and thesis, supports its claims with evidence, provides context, addresses the intended audience, and follows the genre's rules. It also considers whether the conclusion restates the thesis and evidence.

    The organization is evaluated on whether it has a clear introduction, body, and conclusion, is structured in coherent paragraphs of appropriate length, and encourages the reader to continue.

    PEER REVIEW WORKSHEET

    1) TITLE. Is the title of the essay interesting? Does it give some basic information

    on the topic? Is it catchy? Give examples.

    2) INTRODUCTION. Does the essay have a clear introduction? Does it include a

    strong, clear thesis? Does it include information about the topic? Does it grab the

    attention of the reader? Does it make you want to go on with the reading? Give

    examples.

    3) THESIS AND INTERPRETATION. Do the introduction and the essay as a

    whole express a good, clear thesis? How does the writer support his/her claims?

    Does he/she give enough evidence?

    4) SUMMARY and CONTEXT. Does the author provide a detailed yet brief

    summary of the text (trailer or commercial)? Why? Have you identified a

    particular paragraph (or more) where the author gives some interesting

    information about the time and situation when the text was released, or any other

    detail that you think is relevant? What is it interesting about the text that the

    author did research about? Give examples.

    5) ISSUES AND THEMES. What kind of issues does the author identify? Do you

    agree? How is the movie/TV show/book relevant and what does it tell us about

    our times? Do you think the author of the text tackled on the issues professionally

    and explained clearly how the text reveals them? Give examples.
    6) ENTERING A CONVERSATION. Does the author reference at least two

    sources, possibly a positive review and a negative review, and argue them? Does

    the author place themselves into a debate between different reviewers?

    7) FAIR AND BALANCED ASSESSMENT. Does the author provide a positive

    assessment but also recognize what the text could do better? What are the flaws

    of the movie/TV show/book?

    8) CRITERIA. Does the author recognize the criteria that the text needs to meet to

    please the intended audience and elaborates on how the movie/TV show/book

    addresses such audience? Does the author recognize the criteria that the text

    needs to meet its genre? Does the author state if the text breaks the rules of that

    genre?

    9) CONCLUSION. Does the conclusion wrap up the overall opinion of the author?

    Does it restate the thesis by also mentioning some of the evidence that the author

    elaborated on in the body of the essay? Is the final line good and punchy?

    10) ORGANIZATION AND STRUCTURE. Can you identify a clear introduction,

    body and conclusion? Is the essay organized in coherent, well-structured

    paragraphs? Are they too long or too short, is there variation in the length of the

    paragraphs, do they always end on a note that encourage the reader to go on?

    Give examples.

    11) DICTION & TONE. Is the tone professional, neutral and detached? What can

    you notice about the word choice? Are the words that the writer uses strong and

    accurate enough, do they represent the appropriate level of formality, is there


    enough variation? Do you think this profile could be published on a local

    newspaper? Give examples.

    12) GRAMMAR, SPELLING, SYNTAX. Are there any grammatical, spelling and

    syntactical issues? Are they common throughout the essay? Give examples.

    13) FORMAT and CITATIONS. Is the format correct, clear, does it follow the

    guidelines and MLA style? Are the citations correct?
