Revision literally means to "see again," to look at something from a fresh, critical perspective. It is an ongoing process of rethinking the paper: reconsidering your arguments, reviewing your evidence, refining your purpose, reorganizing your presentation, reviving stale prose.

 

Revision requires attention to detail, and you may be under pressure to produce quality results within a deadline. Respond to the following prompts:

• How do you communicate your need for the revision process to those who are waiting for you to complete the document?   
• Who helps edit your documents?
• Do you make all the revisions that are needed?
• Describe the context in which your revision process takes place.
