To report and document well, scientific and engineering professionals systematically collect, evaluate and synthesize the work of their peers with their own. The product of such effort is a technical report or scientific paper that reviews the existing body of knowledge, presenting it in a logical and ordered manner where claims are supported by evidence and referenced by citation. It is also usual in the scientific community that peer review then precedes the publication of such papers. This paper reports on a trial of introducing Computer Science students to the task of technical and scientific writing including the process of peer review. Upon completion of the trial, the students were surveyed anonymously. An overwhelming majority of respondents claimed to have initial reservations about participating. However, upon completion of the exercise, the majority reported that the entire process was intellectually simulating to complete and that it had enhanced their knowledge of subject matter.
