Improving Composition Skills through Peer Review

Randall Cotten

Abstract

   Making students aware of the connections between reading and writing can help them make improvements in each of these language areas. Peer review and feedback can be used to help make learners become aware of the connection between reading and writing. The technique also helps beginning writers to quickly learn the basics of paragraph writing while learning to also consider the expectations of their audience. Giving students a rhetorical form that is standard for native English writers and readers helps them learn not only what form they need to follow, but also gain the ability to monitor and correct their own writing as well as that of their classmates.

Key words : EFL, reading/writing connections, peer review, feedback
