  1. The Writing Process, Step 4:Reviewing your work

  2. Why review? • No one gets it perfectly right on the first attempt. • Even professional writers need to look over their work. • Reviewing lets you catch mistakes in the mechanics and in the content (the ideas).

  3. The Multiple Sides of Reviewing • There are two different ways to review a piece of writing: • EDITING focuses on the MECHANICS of your writing • REVISING is looking at the FLOW of your IDEAS

  4. Do it right! • You should NOT try to do your editing and revising at the same time! • The human brain can only focus well on ONE action at a time. • You will find more errors and create a better final piece if you do your editing SEPARATELY from your revising .

  5. How to review: • Try reviewing your work yourself. • After you have caught whatever mistakes you can, get AT LEAST two other people to review your work, as well.
