Compare and Contrast on Blog 3B
The other student's blog only described the importance of peer reviews. My blog described what peer review is along with the importance of peer review. Another difference is mine described exactly what it helps with while the other student's described that it shows perspectives. The similarities that our two blogs share is that we both put that it shows multiple views on a paper. We both know the reason behind the importance of peer reviews.

Compare and Contrast
When it comes to comparing and contrasting in visual rhetoric it is important to know if you want Point by Point or Subject by Subject. Compare and contrast is important because it shows that one has a better understanding of what the visual wants to tell them. For example, we had to watch two different videos of "The Itsy Bitsy Spider", to compare and contrast them, we had to pay attention and understand the video other than just watching them.
It is important to compare and contrast so that there is comprehension of how multiple visuals are similar and how they are different. It brings the attention of the audience and also helps the audience understand the visual better by comparing them.
