In this activity, you will revise and proofread your essay for clarity as well as technical errors such as spelling, grammar,
and style. Begin by going to the Notebook tool (), copying your essay, and pasting it into the box. Then go through your
essay twice-once to revise it and then again to proofread it.
Revise: Double check that your thesis statement is clear and your ideas connect to the thesis. Make sure you provided
evidence to support your argument.
Proofread: Go through your essay and pick out sentences written in passive voice and revise them to be in the active
voice. Also, check your use of commas and end-of-sentence punctuation.
