It’s designed for students to assess their own work on the first draft of an assignment, specifically focusing on revision and editing practices. It’s completed *before* receiving instructor feedback.
Why This Document Matters

It’s typically used after completing a first draft but before submitting for grading, helping students refine their work and improve their self-assessment skills. It supports the course’s goal of developing successful university-level study habits.
