english 1312 responding to a student writing

 Responding to a student writing

         Revision Strategies

After reading the Sommer's article on revision stratgies, my revision plans have changed, and now I had to apply different methods, like for example revising, and later on rewrite it and try to make it better, it is better to read it more than three times, and have wide explanations, and it is best not to generalize, and explain it well, you need to have it clean, so I would use all this new techniques to make it better, and neat, like for example, I noticed that I used to do a lot of repetition, demonstrates that my vocabulary should be more amplified, and modificate what I have wrong, than just being lazy, and just let it be like that. So first of all Im going to start by doing a brainstorm, then writing what comes up to my mind, then revise it, and edit it, then finish it, then take out the parts, that are do not fit or do not make sense at all, and then re-read it and most important not just go through it but actually revising it, and reviewing it several times, till it becomes best and it makes you feel satisfied following the cycles.
It mainly talks about how your editing may also change what your peers meaning of the wiring was, you might want to change it diffrently but your peer, must haveunderstood it differently than you did, that is one of the most important aspects to check; as I said before not to generalize, but the best thing is to always explain if you say many plants, specify which plants you are refering to.

english 1312 more than just error


More than just Error Connection

An analysis review on this reading was very intersting, becasue you could see how the corrections, and the editing, and realizing, what is important, and what is now has made the reader do all the reserach concerning our methods for a better writing.

It shows you the details that have been made, on the revisions, and what we did not realize before we had wrong and that now is very important such as repetition, accuracy and general improvements. One of the biggest mistake on revising the paper was that repetition is the most common error people doesn't notice until is very repetitive, when at the end its wrong, and the student did not have the time to revise it. 
Moving on another thing that made an impression in this reading was that most of us do not even check the accuracy of the writing it may seem really persuasive, but sources must always be there because otherewise the writing looks weak.
 If students would revise more often and understand every step of the revision it should always support writers in activating their strategies, following the steps first to plan their ideas, then to make their drafts, then editing and at the end, re-read it again for a better understanding to the writing.

This writing has shown that there are many details that we did not notice before, and should always help us for a better writing
