I enjoyed reading your post. I th...Hey Samantha!! I enjoyed reading your post. I think you did a great job in sharing your honest thoughts on this topic!! Peer editing can be a very tough thing to do. Having a positive attitude and showing you care about the work you are editing can make it a lot easier. There are always going to be "Defensive Daves" and "Whatever Williams", but if your peer sees you really care about their work then your editing can be extremely effective. One thing I would be weary of though is to automatically accept any suggestions from peer editors. No one is perfect and just because a suggestion is made doesn't make it correct. I think one should look over all suggestions made and then decide if they are truly going to make the work better. If the suggestion does make the work better then I would implement the changes, if not then I wouldn't.

Especially, if it could possibly hurt their feelings." And you desire to be an educator? You are not alone. I find it hard to understand, however. Maybe if you wanted to be a baby sitter I could understand. But not to be an educator!<br /><br />"...can be the most difficult to please,..." Tp please? Is that what your objective is? Should it be that?<br /><br />"The three stages of giving an informative, helpful, but also polite feedback, are going to help me to honestly critique my classmates blogs." I hope so!<br /><br /><br />"...something helpful to their information." Helpful to information? How does that work?<br /><br />"Anything that another classmate suggests for me to do for my blog, I would do.' Not always a good idea!<br /><br />"... take it in pride..." I think you mean stride, not pride.<br /><br />"Others, take having a couple spelling errors as an insult,..." The authors who made the mistakes or the readers who had to endure the mistakes?<br /><br />John Hadley Strangehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17484977903995419205noreply@blogger.com
