A peer review on my classmate essay

By Alfred

I did a peer review on Yangfan’s WA2. It was an essay on should there be R&D funding for generation IV reactors. In general there were attempts to follow the structure of an argumentative essay. He does have the general outline of an argumentative essay, though in certain paragraph it was not properly structured. There were a few grammatical errors here and there but not much of a problem. I find that his conclusion is good as it did briefly summarise the arguments mentioned earlier in the essay. There is flow in the essay. However, there were times whereby I have tough time trying to follow what he is trying to say. In the essay, within the same paragraph, his argument could be moving in different directions. There were times whereby he was not clear in his explanation about his arguments. he has a few sentence structure error in a few occasion which made it tough for me to understand what is the point he was trying to bring across. Furthermore, his reference list was not in the APA style. Overall, the essay was understandable and addressed the issue that he had identified.
