Journal #2

Before i read this article, the only mistakes i change would only be grammar related. I never really focused on what the writer was trying to say throughout the paper. After reading this article i agree with Straub. If you focus on what the writer is trying to say, you will get a better understanding of how to make the paper better. When i would revise other peoples paper i would try and sound like the teacher. I never knew this was a bad thing. After reading Straubs article i am going to sound like a friend when revising their paper, not like a teacher. During the next workshop, i am going to have an open mind when grading other peoples work. Instead of just saying their paper sucks, Im going to write a little more so they understand what i am trying to say to them.
