1. This text surprised me with the amount of thought that goes into critique and praise when peer reviewing a piece of text. I never thought of it as so in depth as this article went to explain in areas like: how much critique, considering the writer, and where specifically to write your comments.
2. I do believe the strategies in this article will allow be to become a better reviewer. Some of the strategies that stuck out to me were how to sound and how we are influenced by what we know about the writer. I think that it is very important not to come off as authoritative when reviewing, but instead give suggestions because like stated in the article, it is the author who wrote it, and you are merely the reader. Also, it is crucial to consider your writer when reviewing because different writers are in different positions and they need different criticism in order to succeed. In other words, no two writers are the same.
3. I have done peer reviews in the past. All of them have been positive and there have been little to no problems with the way I review. However, in the past, I do have to admit that I interject a fair amount of my own opinions on the way the writer portrays theirs, which is unfair, and I need to lay back off of that.
