This text surprised me by how much thought and detail should go into peer review. I always just assumed being swift was the best for everyone. However, taking time and contemplate the writer’s work with feedback sometimes longer than 3 words can really benefit a writer.
One strategy that stuck is to assess the situation before peer grading: is the writer trying to have a serious, comedic, or another tone. This helps you be able to positively benefit the writers work.
Another strategy would to not be bossy. Not like a “judge” or a “teacher.” One should sound like themselves normally, because you are giving a response not a lecture. I never really thought to think of this because I always tried to keep an objective, teacher tone.
I have done peer review in the past. My experience has been positive because my peers have usually been both critical, responsive and agreeable to my work. I have never had someone be too critical or received too much praise.
