How Can You Provide Meaningful Feedback to Your Peers?
The term "peer editing" was defined in one of the provided links as "working with someone your own age to help improve, revise, and edit his or her own work" (Tutorial Peer Editing by Adriana Zardini). After viewing the sources required for this post, one discovered the three main factors within peer editing are the following: Compliments, Suggestions, and Corrections. As an educator, one could use this approach to teach students how to refine others's written work and develop self-awareness within their own compositions. Being a music instructor who has worked as a judicator at multiple competitions, I have learned to do constructive criticism. The point of assessing someone's craft is not to break them down but to encourage and give suggestions to better their performance, regardless of the subject area.
Observing Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes made me smile. It took an interesting spin on outlining the set guidelines for editing and is attempting to ensure students do not cause socialization issues among one another. The main objectives when peer editing is to look for creativity and make specific suggestions without being rude to assist the author. One must ask themselves questions while reading their classmate's blog, such as "did that statement make sense?" and "does the topic stay consistent with what the assignment asks?" Overall, we should stay optimistic and benefit from one another's writing.

ReplyDeleteThis is Blog Post #3. My mistake. I deleted my comment about the correct number of the Blog Assignment. Otherwise the following is the same as my original comment.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to me that performers are much more willing to engage in constructive criticism than educators who do not want to "hurt someone's feelings". Where would music, art, drama, football be without constructive criticism.
Keep it up!
Well written.
