I often think that revision deals primarily with global issues within the piece of writing. It's not about sentences and words, but about essay structure, argument, and evidence. You might have a little bit of revision to complete before proofreading your essays for the final portfolio submission. However, most of you are going to want to be concerned with proofreading (which is sometimes called copyediting). Makes sure you have all the little things in order: sentence fragments and run-ons, grammar, spelling, punctuation, formatting, etc.
This blog post does a fairly good job of explaining the differences.
