[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Peer editing is the most ridiculous thing ~ relying on students who know so little, to do the corrections. Lazy teachers![/quote] I don’t [i]rely[/i] on students to do the corrections. I don’t know anyone who does that. Students meet with peers to share, revise and edit, but that’s for practice. They listen to each other, ask questions, make suggestions, and often are able to help each other improve their writing. They still conference with the teacher about their writing and receive input and corrections then. Often, many revisions and edits have been made before the student conferences with the teacher, but why would you see that as a negative? Have you never had someone else look at your writing? [/quote] +1, they are learning a skill in writing and in communication (giving oral feedback appropriately).[/quote] +1[/quote]
