Peer Review Assignment

A few announcements:

1. You are no longer required to submit a Peer Review Letter or a separate Revision Plan; I have deleted these assignments on Stellar. HOWEVER, please add your name to the first criteria comment box so that the author knows the name of the reviewer.

2. To view the comments from your peers, go to Tasks > Revision Plan > Project (Research Article/Literature Review). By Tues, 5/9, please rate each review and submit your Revision Plan at the end of the page. You can see the annotations by clicking on "View Peer Review" by each reviewer.

Elevator pitches

I am very happy with the how everyone engaged in the elevator pitch assignment. I particularly liked the genuine enthusiasm that I saw as people developed and presented their ideas. In the real world, an elevator pitch is never a one-off, and people continue to refine and improve their pitched ideas every time they give a presentation. If we had the time, it would be an interesting exercise to go through at least one more iteration of the teams developing and presenting their pitches.

Please remember to email me your slide presentations so I can give written feedback.
