Then go to http://heroicchoices.blogspot.com and from the "blog roll" to the right click on the student for whom you are an editor.  The assignment you are looking at is blog #4. They had to write a summary of the allegory of the cave using the following guidelines:


State the main idea (thesis) of the text accurately and clearly
State the supporting ideas accurately and clearly
Omit secondary details (all or almost all)
Follow the order of the original
Be written in your own words--no plagiarism but without opinion
Written in Standard Edited English

Write a couple of paragraphs giving your feedback to the other student. Introduce yourself, tell them what you think works in their essay, and then make suggestions for editing. Talk about content first, then grammar. Finish by inviting them to look at your blog, and give them your blog address as a link. Post the paragraphs as a comment to their blog post, and you are done. Please remember to be courteous to the other students.
