[PEER EDIT] Enhancing your writing through peer editing

In the United States, peer editing documents is a very common method for enhancing documents.


Fun Fact: Google Docs was designed to enable this because Microsoft Word did not have this feature.

As said in class, "we can not find our own mistakes". This idea has become popular in the business world of "writing documents". As a result, over the recent years, there are now startups and companies which focus on these features. For example, Grammarly is a company that made the chrome extension that auto-corrects your writing on the web.


Fun Fact: I create my blog posts with the help of Grammarly.

Peer editing is a powerful method that can be used to edit and enhance your document. Because can not find our own "minor" mistakes, utilizing the free services online may be a great choice to make.

Since it is a UI design, the whole design interacts to the users with geometrical and photographic elements animated and placed according to a layout. (the layout guidelines are set by Google). For example, if you were to tell a user about a new feature, this is what Material UI Design will solve the task: https://storage.googleapis.com/material-design/publish/material_v_12/assets/0B4kv-3uZbS1qQVhNbFlVdlNsOEE/engagement-featurediscovery-single-flow.mp4
