Journal 2!

Before reading Straub's essay, I didn't take revision seriously. I didn't think that I was capable of giving comments that were actually helpful, because I'm not any teacher. After reading, now I realize the benefits of revision. I have learned that my comments should be constructive and not so critical. I shouldn't blatantly pick out someone's errors, but to try to be more of a helper. I know now that I should pay attention to more details, and less skimming, because I think their paper or topic is uninteresting. During the first writing workshop, I will be a positive critic to myself and to my peers. The more I focus on revision, the more successful my final draft will be.
