ENG 115 Week 4 Discussion

Point of View

In the Informative Essay, you are going to be writing in the third person point of view. When writing in third person, the writer does not refer to him or herself by using "I," and does not address the reader directly by using "you." Instead, the writer gives an observer's perspective and uses words such as "he/she/they."

1. Copy/paste a few sentences from your Personal Essay (Assignment 1), which illustrates the use of first person ("I") point of view.
2. Change the point of view from first person to third person.

Peer Feedback:

After you have posted, provide a classmate with feedback.

1. Did they change the point of view correctly?
2. Do you have any changes to suggest?
3. What did they do well? Make sure to celebrate each other's successes.

How to give feedback: A “good” peer review is specific and combines suggestions for improvement and praise for what works well. A “poor” peer review does not give specifics and does not offer insight to help your classmate reflect on or improve his or her writing.
