Between now and Friday, you're all reading chapter 15 in Bruce Ballenger's The Curious Writer in anticipation of our first Peer Review day. In addition to this, we discussed some of the gripes/complaints that we have about the process of peer review.
Now I'd like you to turn this critical eye inward and ask yourself what kind of a group member you have been in the past, or have a tendency to be. On page 645 of your textbook, in a blue box, you'll see a list of group roles that Ballenger has come up with. Come up with a label for yourself ... what kind of group member are you? Give examples, explain what about your personality/preparation/etc. causes you to assume this role. Finally, explain how this could either help or hinder the effectiveness of your group. You may choose one of Ballenger's labels if you like, but do not feel that you have to. Be creative! Be honest! Feel free to invent your own unique label (either positive or negative).
