WORKSHOP SHEET

1. In your own words, what is the paper's topic?

2. How would you summarize its purpose or the assertion it is making or the thing that it wants to prove to be true?

3. Could you make an outline of the paper's topics? Or could your outline its structure? Do you have suggestions for a clearer structure?

4. What about transitions? Which ones work for you? Which ones could be rethought? Could you offer a suggestion for one?

5. What is your favorite example or piece of evidence? Try to explain why.

6. What is a point you would like to hear more about? Where is a spot that a detailed example would work well? What suggestions might you have for one?

7. Are there any grammatical or proofreading issues the writer should be careful of? Identify those concerns to review here.
