Week 8 Comments and Feedback

Overall, the quality of comments and feedback is very good. The comments are helpful and constructive and I believe I have benefitted from feedback. In other class, I do not feel as though comments were helpful, for most students were just completing them for credit, so I appreciate these comments that are very helpful.

The most helpful comments are the ones that say "what is you did...", for they provide another idea that I can incorporate in a particular story or a later story. 

I have enjoyed reading other's stories and projects. Everyone's work is do diverse and creative. I do believe that I have given some helpful feedback, however, there are times where I read a post and find it hard to find anything wrong with it, so I end up telling the author what I felt their strong points are. 

I do feel like I am meeting students by connecting with them on our introduction blog post. Surprisingly enough, I know a few people in here from other classes and campus activities, but it has still be fun to get to know other students. 

I have discovered that reading the authors note before I read their story is helpful, and I plan on continuing to do this. To improve my commenting I will go back to the first units about leaving feedback and try out some new skills.

Criticism is hard to take sometimes, but it is super important to use it and learn from it. In this class, all my feedback has been very helpful, kind and constructive, making it easy to use and learn from it. However, there are times in life when you will be critiqued and it is not in a manner that is as nice. Learning how to take it and use it now is a skill that will benefit us in life.
