Week 8 Comments and Feedback

The feedback I have received for my storybook project has been the most useful so far! A couple of students said that the background image behind the font for the introduction page was either hard to read or clashed with the rest of the project, so I made some changes. I think constructive comments are most useful because they help me improve my writing moving forward. The quality of the feedback I am receiving from other students is excellent! I really think the WWW and TAG assignments helped me gain techniques to use when writing feedback for other students in the class. It is so easy to tell someone what you liked about their story, but it is difficult to give suggestions on how to improve their writing. I think using a technique like asking a question in order to recommend adding a part or changing something in the story makes providing feedback much more doable. Reading classmate's introduction posts before reading their stories helps with having a connection with the writer and I think this benefits the reader's experience. I need to work on leaving more suggestions on everyone's stories instead of mainly discussing the parts of the post I enjoyed. I chose this image because I thought having this list could be useful if you are fighting with a spouse or friend. You could keep these suggestions in mind when you sit down to talk things out. This helps diffuse the situation in a healthy way.
