How is peer review beneficial to students?

a. it gives students a better idea of what they should revise in their own papers.
b. it makes students responsible for submitting their rough draft on time.
c. it gives students the chance to write about a topic they are interested in.
d. it allows students to use information from their peers as source material.

answer A.

Explanation:

b and c can't be right since reviewing doesn't=timeliness, and they are already writing about a topic. D is a little more tricky, but you can't use information from peers as source material, as it is hard to identify whether what he/she is saying is true. and so A must be true.

compare & contrast informative essay/speech

when speaking or writing for the sole purpose of providing information in order to give audience members a good basis for making a decision, you would present an informative speech or essay.   because you wouldn’t want to be persuading the audience by arguing for one type of exercise over the other, you wouldn’t choose a persuasive/argumentative technique.   to fairly, and without bias, present information about the pros and cons of each type exercise, a compare/contrast, informative speech/essay would be the best bet.
