Peer review #2

Hello Everyone,

Today I will be revisiting we will be revisiting peer feedback. We will look at some additional tips for peer feedback, as well as some of the advantages.

As I was going through the blog post I stumbled upon a method called SPARK, this type of method may help me give feedback on blogs that I will have to type feedback on. According to the website, it states that “good peer review should provide the writer with meaningful information for improvement while developing the reviewer’s ability to analyze a text’s effectiveness. (Teaching Students to Give Peer Feedback, 2021) which in my opinion to be true as you can learn a lot from someone else rather than reviewing it yourself as you may be biased to think that everything you did was right, and you may not see anything wrong with what you have written. As I have read on the website SPARK is an acronym and this is how they are laid out

·         Specific: Comments are linked to a discrete word, phrase, or sentence. (Teaching Students to Give Peer Feedback, 2021)

·         Prescriptive: Like a medical prescription that aims to solve an ailment, prescriptive feedback offers a solution or strategy to improve the work, including possible revisions or links to helpful resources or examples. (Teaching Students to Give Peer Feedback, 2021)

·         Actionable: When the feedback is read, it leaves the peer knowing what steps to take for improvement. (Teaching Students to Give Peer Feedback, 2021)

·         Referenced: The feedback directly references the task criteria, requirements, or target skills. (Teaching Students to Give Peer Feedback, 2021)

·         Kind: It’s mandatory that all comments be framed in a kind, supportive way. (Teaching Students to Give Peer Feedback, 2021)

This makes peer review much easier in my opinion.

 In the blog post, I have reviewed, both blogs were good however there were some faults in their parts such as their introduction. By this, I mean that they did not address the audience which in my opinion would make the audience feel more included therefore making their blogs more engaging. There weren’t any other faults I could find.

Thanks for tuning in!
