Chloe just finished her corrections on her second brief for the club - this one was 25 pages which included 2 pages of references.  That is a lot of work.  And, no grade or official reward....I wonder if I would have wanted to do something like that.  The subject matter:  depleted uranium.   How is that for an exciting topic? 

She sends her brief to another member of the club (who has more debate experience).  That member reads and critiques the brief - adding ideas or suggestions in another color of online ink.  The brief is then returned to Chloe for corrections.  Chloe reads the suggestions thru and then begins on the rewrite.  She didn't have a lot of rewriting to do so it took her maybe an hour total.  The brief is then sent back to the critiquing member.  It is a lot of work considering it may or may not ever get used during a debate.
