360 Portfolio Cover Letter Peer Review Sheet

Writer: Vincent Rivera

Assessor: Jonathan Bravo

Please read two or three of your peers cover letters. Give the most specific advice that you can
with regard to these questions:
1. Does the letter directly address ALL
of our student learning outcomes?
2. Does the letter support its claims
about how the portfolio demonstrates
the writers achievement of our
SLOs with specific evidence from
actual portfolio documents? Heres
an example of specific evidence:
In the third paragraph of my memo,
I acknowledge that Nat Geo doesnt
have a lot of the current-events
content that many educators like to
see on college campuses, but I argue
that Nat Geos implicit
environmental and social point of
view makes up for this perceived
lack. This shows that Im able to
consider and present fairly the
merits of different viewpoints.
3. Were you doubtful about or
unpersuaded by any of the writers
claims about a particular SLO?
4. Is the letter organized logically and
efficiently, or could you suggest
ways to improve the organization
(topic sentences, transitions, P order,
thesis)?
5. Does the cover letter use letter
formatting?
6. Are the letters sentences effective
and clear?
