I like peer reviews, I think it is a great way to get lots of feedback. Positive or negative feedback is always helpful as long as the reviewer is not just degrading my work. When I review someone's work and try to give the most positive feedback I can. When I find something wrong I try to let them know first how good of a job they did, then mention what could be changed and give some suggestions. Then I would remind them on how good of a job they did. My fiancé calls this a compliment sandwich lol.
I tend to take negative feedback the best that I can, sometimes it is hard if all someone is doing is degrading your work instead of telling you what needs to be fixed or changed, and then giving some suggestions. I do not expect everyone to always like my work and only say positive things about my work.
This week has been better than the last few weeks. Working on my paper has stressed me out, I tend to think I have to work and work until it’s pleasing to me and I can be pretty hard on myself. Although, I am glad the draft is over and the hard part is out of the way. I am now anxious to see what feedback I get for my draft so that I can make some changes to get the draft perfect enough to finish off the whole paper. I hope everyone had a great week! ;)
Hi Melody,
ReplyDeleteIt is time to kick back and take a little break. Step away from paper and come back to it fresh later in the week.
