101/AMST MUSIC 105: Popular Music in the US Instructions for Submitting the Second Essay Draft Dear Students, As we mentioned in class on Thursday and Friday, the second essay draft will be peer reviewed. All six discussion sections of this course are doing the same peer review system. This system worked well last time the course was offered and in other courses, and we hope it will prove profitable again this year. Providing constructive criticism is an important skill to develop. Finally, this peer review should greatly help you organize and style your own writing. Towards the end of this sheet are some tips for essay writing. These double as pointers for you when you come to comment on other peoples work. Weve assigned you to groups of three. We will also email you a list of the groups. You will email your essay to the other two members of the group (by midnight on Friday April 4th). You will also receive essays from the other two members of your group. Over the following few days you will comment on the four essays (using MS Word comment function), and then send them back to their authors. We know this might seem a little fastidious, but, by sticking to the following instructions for submitting the essay, the otherwise complicated process of exchanging essays should be simple. 1. Finish your new essay drafts by 11:59pm on Friday, April 4th. 2. Save your essays using the following file name format: surname_firstname_essay2 (e.g. pond_steven_essay2). If you use Word 2007, be sure to save the essays in the Word 19972003 format, so that users of pre-07 versions can read them. 3. Email your essay to the other two members of your group by 11:59pm on Friday. Include your TA on the email as a ccrecipient. 4. Begin reading and commenting on the two essays you will receive. Please provide detailed comments using the MS Word comment function. 5. Save the commented upon essays using the Save As function. Add your name to the existing file name with the following format: _comments_surname_firstname. For example, Mickey
Mouses comments on Prof. draft Ponds would be called pond_steven_essay2_comments_mouse_mickey. We know that makes the file name very long, but its a workable system. 6. Email the essays which you commented on back to their authors by 11:59pm on April 11th. You must also send the commentedupon essays to your TA. 7. Enjoy reading your essays with two lots of comments over the next week. 8. Email the final version of your essay to your TA by 11:59pm on Monday, April 21st. Your comments should be in form of constructive criticism, which should include some positive comments! You must not be unkind! Your task is to help the author of the essay youre commenting on improve her or his work and succeed in the task of producing a first-rate piece of work. It is important that you provide detailed comments by the deadline. If you dont, not only will your grade for this component be effected, but you will be letting the other members of your group down. TIPS FOR ESSAYS: Use a clear thesis Each paragraph (if not each sentence) should lead to your conclusion. Beware of tangential points in a short essay. Avoid extended quotations. Instead, use as few words as possible in quotation marks, folding them into your sentence and then cite the source for quotation (or for an authors paraphrased idea) at the end of the sentence. Be sure to cite all sources and readers, help your essayist avoid trouble by spotting problems before they get turned in. Be careful not to simply write a biography. Consider the proportion of each lecture that Prof. Pond devotes to biography its very small. Use this as a model of approximately how much simple biography of pop musicians to include in your essay. When you comment on your peoples essays, its not your job to do basic editing. Please read through your essay draft before sending it to the others in your group. As weve said, were happy to see people and read through essay drafts, especially in office hours or at another mutually convenient time.
