Your Name: Angelica Ladron De Guevara Hernandez The Name of Your Classmate Being Reviewed: Katie Vixaisack Peer Review Questions – Required – Please type your answers in the right-hand column below. Question/Task Answer/Explanation Before you answer questions about each part of your classmate's worksheet, read through all of their responses in all parts. What about their topic, main ideas and details do you like best? Please share at least two things you feel will work well for an Argument Research Essay, or things you feel will appeal well to a reader. I appreciate the relevance and significance of the chosen topic. My classmate has selected the Covid-19 pandemic, a global issue affecting millions of people. It is an engaging and essential subject for an Argument Research Essay. Additionally, emphasizing learning from failures and preparing for future pandemics is commendable, as it focuses on proactive solutions. In Part 1A of the worksheet, does the student clearly state their stance? Is their stance an arguable one? If so, please discuss what you like about it and what made it effective. If not, please explain how you feel the stance needed to be clearer. The student clearly states their stance within the debate, asserting that "Covid-19 put every country and the global health system to the test. How, why, and where the world and individual countries succeeded or failed against COVID-19..." This stance is arguable as it presents a perspective on the pandemic's impact and the necessary response. The bearing effectively sets the tone for the essay. In Part 1B of the worksheet, did the student thoroughly explain why their stance was a good choice? Did they give effective examples? If you feel the paragraph was effective, please explain why and how they can expand in moving forward. If you feel the stance needs work in any way, please write suggestions for clarification your classmate can make. My classmate thoroughly explains why their stance is a good choice: "This dangerous disease has killed more than five million people worldwide. The world is still dangerously unprepared for the next pandemic threat." These reasons, supported by examples such as "People were not aware how dangerous this disease was due to the lack of resources," make this paragraph effective. To expand further, the learner could probe into specific statistics or case studies related to these points. In Part 1C: Does the student present effective opposing viewpoints? Are the opposing viewpoints strongly presented? If yes, how. If no, how could they improve on them? The student presents effective opposing viewpoints, acknowledging that "For the most part, anti-vaccine people will disagree on vaccinating against this disease. I also feel that the CDC will state that they provided all possible resources to the citizen." While they briefly mention these opposing views, providing more ©2021 Chamberlain University

· Fred, thank you so much for reviewing my prewriting! I'm glad you noticed that one of my main ideas has far fewer examples than the other two. I sort of felt that way, too, and I'm going to brainstorm more. Do you have a couple of ideas, or does anyone here- classmates, I'd love some help! Cheers! -Bruce · Hello, Francis! You are very welcome; it was my pleasure to review your writing. You asked about why I thought your main ideas don't quite match, and that's a great question. This is just my perspective as a reader, but I expected, from a topic like "types of chocolate," to see main ideas like milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and baker's chocolate. I think that having three countries who make good chocolate is an excellent approach; maybe change your overall topic to match- like, "chocolate from different countries." I'm happy to discuss more! Have a great day, Melanie ©2021 Chamberlain University
