Peer Editing
This week we learned from the multiple videos of how to edit a peers work properly. In these videos such as What is Peer Editing?, Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes, and the slide show Peer Editing With Perfection Tutorial, there was excellent points and procedures of how to properly edit a peers work. There are three main properties in editing a peers work. The first step to editing a peers work is to start with a compliment and always be positive. Next you should provide lots of positive suggestions and focus word choice, organization, using details, length of the sentences, and the topic of the discussion. The last step that should be focused on is corrections such as spelling mistakes, missing punctuation, grammatical errors, incomplete or run-on sentences. These steps are a necessity to editing a peers work correctly.
These guidelines are great to follow for proper peer editing. I can apply these steps to my to my previous group assignment blog post 2 for example when reading Philip's blog on the "Mr. Dancealot" video that I really enjoyed reading his post and it covered the topic perfectly. When peer editing Victoria's post on "Flipping the Classroom" from blog post 2 I would say her word choice in topic of discussion she chose was very well put together and organized. These are a few examples of many peer editing tools and examples that a person can follow to give a quality edit.
Duane,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, great job on your blog layout. One thing I would suggest for that though is to use the ALT and TITLE modifiers on your picture! Your blog was thorough on describing what you had read/watched. In the third paragraph, you had a couple of mistakes, so reread it and you should be good! Overall good job!
