a. How did this text surprise you?
a. The
most surprising point I read in this text were the points made were about using
conversational tones when editing. Not sounding so professional will give off a
more relaxed review and take away stress from the other student. It’s also
relieving to not have to think so hard about what to say.
b. Do you
think the strategies in this text can help in peer review? Mention two that
stuck out to you and discuss your opinion on them.
a. Yes,
I think the strategies mentioned in the text can be very useful for peer
editing. The two tips that I enjoyed most were to always keep two minds on your
response. This allows a fair distribution of criticism and praise. The second
is to not be short and sweet. I never liked getting my paper back with no
notes, it’s extremely unhelpful when you’re trying to perfect what you’ve written.
c. Have you done peer review in the
past? If so, has that experience been positive or negative and why?
a. I
have done peer review in the past. It was taught similarly to me as the text
explained. It was a positive experience while learning it but in action it was
a negative experience. It was either that the student was too shy to give me good
criticism or too lazy to provide anything at all.
