Have you ever looked at a paper that you wrote years previously and wondered how you could have made so many mistakes on it? I know I have. Part of the problem is that I didn't know how to go about editing my paper. As many people believe, I thought that spell check would catch all my mistakes for me. And instead of rereading it for myself I just let my computer do all the work. Little did I know that the computer would not catch incorrect word usage.
I agree with the book that you should read your work many times before finally submitting it. And it is also a very good idea to have a friend or peer read it as well. They will be able to give you an outside opinion about what needs to be fixed or changed. An outside opinion can help make your paper a success!
