revision
Revising an assignment means looking at it carefully and making significant changes
to improve it. If there's something wrong with your car's engine, you
can't solve the problem with a fresh coat of paint. Revision asks you
to go beyond surface changes such as spelling and punctuation, and
address big-picture issues such as focus, clarity, and audience. (See "Revision vs. Editing.")
