In the slideshow Peer Edit With Perfection Tutorial ,we are told there are several steps to consider when editing someone's work. Always leave the student with compliments, suggestions and corrections. Start off by giving the writer compliments. This will make the writer feel good about what they wrote and more open to accepting the suggestions and corrections. Suggestions should give the writer ideas about what you think they could add or change to their work to make it better. Make sure to only suggest the ideas, never make the writer feel like what you have to say is better than what they wrote. The last step is giving corrections. When giving corrections you are checking for spelling errors, grammar mistakes, incomplete sentences and missing punctuation. The video Writting Peer Review Top 10 Mistakes, shows how easy it is to become a "mean Maggie" or a "picky Patty". The main point of the video is to show how important it is to stay positive when peer editing, students will learn more effectively with a positive attitude.

In the video What is Peer editing?, we learn that peer editing is positively editing someone else's work, within the same age group. The whole point of peer editing is to give students feedback that will help them in future writing. Feedback is important in giving the student a different point of view of their work. Staying positive while peer editing a students work is a major point to remember. Students learn more effectively if they are given positive feedback rather than negative feeedback. They are more likely to take the suggestions from someone who keeps a positive mind.

Nicole I really enjoyed what you had to say. I also wrote very much of the same thoughts and ideas you had. You grasped the concept well and I like how you threw in the actual "names" of what type of people our peers can be.
