15. “My peer mark experience was great. I liked that someone took the time to revise my paper and give me proper feedback. The information about word choice gave me things to work on. The fact that they admired my argument gave me confidence. My word choice improved from this experience.”

16. Peermark “My Peer Mark experience was really good. It was a lot easier to see the revisions that other people recommended. Also, it was easier to leave revisions on other people's papers. I liked that you could highlight specific parts and also the questions on the side that were answered because it helped me really understand how to improve my paper. The feedback was valuable to me when it came to format because my reviewer really helped me understand how I was supposed to write the essay. My writing improved with word choice and formatting.”

27. “I like Peermark activities because I get respectful reminders and opinions from my peers before the final due date. It gives me a chance to improve my word choice and flow before the teacher views it. I find it helpful knowing that my peers can fully understand the point of my essay. It even gives me an idea on how well I did with the actual research. I really feel like I'm getting the best feedback when it's from my peers, and that I can make the best possible revisions.”
