Blog Assignment #3
What really is peer editing? In the YouTube video "Peer Editing", it tells us that peer editing means working with someone your own age to help improve their own writing. When approaching peer editing a person's writing there are three rules to always remember. The top three steps are complimenting, suggesting, and correcting. From the PowerPoint "Peer Edit with Perfection Tutorial", it is mentioned that when complimenting it should always be positive, but would be good to do at the very beginning of the edit. Along with starting with compliments, it also mentions how to be specific when making suggestions.
I will follow the three main rules of complimenting, suggesting, and correcting when peer editing my classmates in not only EDM310, but other classes as well. I will also remember the different "personalities" that can come from peer editing that were demonstrated in "Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes". The most important thing that can come from peer editing is that it should only make a person better. It is there to help us to become better writers, but to also think about how to possibly change our writing style. Peer editing is a great thing to learn to help apply to an everyday process.
