Feedback Focus

These feedback ideas were very helpful. The one I thought was the most helpful and that I will definitely use the most is the copy and paste idea. It helped me focus in and not get ahead of myself before writing comments. This slowed me down and gave me more focus on giving better feedback through each individual paragraph. My second favorite was the reading aloud idea. This is one of my biggest problems, just speed reading and not gaining a true gist of what is happening and how the story could be improved. This concept kept me at a good pace and I was able to catch things that didn't make as much sense to me and allowed me to help with the flow of the paper. My least favorite, but still helpful idea was the timer. I don't have a problem focusing on a paper, and this timer made me nervous and kind of forced me to speed read through it. But this was helpful because it kept me under a time and helped me not to drift away for too long or spend much of my time in one section.

Overall these techniques were very helpful and I will use them all the time when giving feedback, not just in this class but in all my other classes as well.
