1. Compliment
2. Suggestions
3. Corrections
I never knew there were steps to follow when editing. In the past I was always told to switch my paper with a peer and make corrections on the paper. Now that I know there are steps to follow, I think it will make it easier to edit. Editing to me was never fun because I basically told people every little thing they did wrong on their paper, and some people take offense in others critiquing their work.
After viewing the Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes video clip, I think we can all agree that we have encountered at least one of the mentioned mistakes.I personally have witnessed or been a victim of all 10 mistakes.From the video I learned exactly what not to do while editing a peers work.
It looks like you have started this post, which is great (way to be on top of your time management) but you don't have to publish the post once you start it.
ReplyDeleteYou can save a post that you have started and be able to go back and edit it at a later time. Just hit save instead of publish.
Blogger takes a little playing around with to get used to, but your blog looks great so far and you have the html code down!
Pearl,
ReplyDeleteAs Melissa mentioned above, I am not sure if you have finished your blog post yet. If you have, I would suggest maybe editing it and including some sort of closing statements. I enjoyed reading what you have though! I especially love the picture you included. Anyways, peer editing can be a touchy subject and I agree that we have encountered the different types of peer editors. More than enough times if you ask me! These videos and presentations helped me to be able to edit better and I'm very thankful for that. I enjoyed your post!
Nice image!
ReplyDeleteKeep in mind what you have learned about peer editing when critiquing posts this semester.
