Happy Holidays Everyone....
This unit we are reviewing our peers rough drafts and having them review ours. I like the idea of having my fellow classmates read over my paper and give me feedback.
I sometimes can get my fiance or my sister or mom to look at my papers but not often. I also feel that they are not the unbiased types when it comes to my writing. They all say I write great.
I think my classmates will be more honest with me and will give me helpful feedback since they are my target audience. I want them to be able to understand the topic I am writing on but I do not want to bore them with what is common knowledge in our circle of academia.
This was an ah-ha moment for me. :) I don't know why I never thought about asking my classmates to look over my paper. It does make sense though since we are all in or planning on being in health fields.
I must admit that I may be a bit more nervous about looking over their papers and giving feedback than I am about receiving their feedback. I will keep in mind that I want to be constructive in giving them feedback and that I am not looking at grammar but at the layout and flow of the paper.
This is definitely new to me since I do not remember doing peer-reviews in high school. I do remember grading other student papers in elementary though. :)
