The assignment for this week was a video What is Peer Editing?, slide show Peer Edit with Perfection, and video Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes. With these videos, it was a reminder and a refresher on what my role is as a "peer editor." Realizing the standards needed of me to give a quality review. It only takes three steps: compliments, suggestions, and corrections. I really loved the video Writing Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes. It was a cute way of show what not to do as an editor.

But as an Educator, I will have critique my student's performance. Sometimes I will have to tell my students things they might not want to hear and it might make me feel uncomfortable also. I will always make it a point to be positive and to encourage them. As an Educator, I want my students to be successful.
I find it amusing I was assigned to your blog this week! Hi honey! Ok so first things first, the last paragraph, second line, you said "not what to hear" and I assume you meant "not want to hear". Happens to me all the time, my brain goes faster than my fingers type.
ReplyDeleteNow I totally agree with you in this post but I think my fears aren't so much that i'll be wrong (which is a fear still) but to have full control over my work. I have it in my head that I can't take credit for it unless I do it all myself. Stupid, I know, but still. So yeah I agree this assignment helped me loosen up and be more honest, especially since that's expected of us as educators!
I miss you!
Interesting. Personal. Well done.
