Written Assignment Peer Assessment
In the unit following the submission of your written assignment, you will peer assess three (3) of your classmates' assignments according to the instructions found in the Assessment Form. During this peer assessment period, you are expected to provide details in the feedback section of the Assessment Form, indicating why you awarded the grade that you did to your peer. The written assignment grade is comprised of a combination of your submission (90%) and your peer assessments (10%).

Did the speaker provide enough information for you to understand how the two items, ideas, etc. are similar or different? In 1 -2 sentences discuss any additional information that would have been useful.
