Author / reader / entry version / reader familiarity
First read: choose a classmate who has not seen the project.
Independent account of the protagonist

Compare account with the entry
Cite words: contradiction, omission, ambiguous or missing detail?
Revision and reason
Repair the written entry where needed; do not rely on oral explanation.
