ABSTRACT
Studies highlight the benefits of peer review as a tool for the improvement of undergraduates’ writing. In this paper, the aim is to know the incidence of this practice in the construction of academic texts. For this purpose, a qualitative analysis of the introductions of academic papers produced by 41 first-year university students before and after receiving peer feedback was carried out. The results show that the changes are focused on the use of sources and on improving the text at the grammatical level.
