Revisions are Important
I find doing revisions is an important process. After my last post of my first sentence with thesis and people responded with what they thought about it and how things could improve I was very grateful and went back and think I made some improvements. I also submit my essays to the online tutor and make the corrections they suggest as well. I am not a very good writer and creativity does not come easy to me so my writings are usually quite boring. When I read some of my classmates writings I think how nice they sounds and wish I could be so creative with words. The benefits of revising is to improve, with the help of others. If you have someone look over what you have written they can tell you if it makes sense, or if you are using to much detail, even if you are using the correct words. Other peoples opinion is helpful in many ways.
The link I am attaching to my heading is interesting about why revisions are important, constructive criticism is an important element in offering the writer help.

Toni, great post this week. It is great to hear your positive thoughts and feelings on revisions. I agree with you feedback is important and helpful. I hope you are starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. I am relieved I am almost done with this essay and the semester. It has been tough and stressful. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about reading other classmates blogs and wishing I was that creative with my writings too. I have a hard time writing papers, especially when it's not a subject I don't fully care for or understand properly. Good post and good luck with your paper!
ReplyDeleteI agree with your post and how it reflects on revisions. Glad to hear it helps your writing process a lot as well.
ReplyDeleteI would definitely have to agree that revision is an important aspect of the writing process. It not only improves your writing but also helps to learn from your mistakes and become a better writer. The online tutor is an excellent choice to get feedback and have someone else take a look at your work.
ReplyDeleteToni, you make some great points. I think you hit it square on the nose. I wish you the best on your final.
ReplyDeleteI too think revision is an important step and admit i need to do it more often. but I liked what you said about when you read others posts. I feel the same way sometimes. keep up the good work though!
