In this activity, you will review the final report submitted by one of your colleagues (or a group of your colleagues) and provide constructive recommendations and suggestions to improve the report. Peer review is an essential part of academic and professional work. Review allows other colleagues and collaborators to give you constructive feedback so you can improve a piece of writing or analysis. Constructive feedback involves both identifying for the author what is done well and what could be improved. Feedback can and should cover all areas of the report including content, presentation of ideas and information, style, and formatting.
