Self-Evaluation

The idea
Self-evaluation means judging your own draft against the assignment's criteria, as an outside reader would.
In practice
Setting the draft aside for a time before rereading makes it easier to see it objectively, from a reader's view.
Where people slip
Rereading immediately, you see what you meant; after a break, you see what you wrote.
Your place on the trail
Every lesson rests on earlier ones and opens later ones. Tap any to jump.

- Nothing yet depends on this.
