10-second review: Does the quality of successive students’ first drafts improve as a result of teacher feedback?
Comment: In my experience, the quality of students’ ten-minute writings did improve in successive ten-minute writings as a result of my correcting their expression each night and their comparing the originals with my corrected copy. The ten-minute essays with which students began class were really first drafts, if not completed essays. If you want more information about these ten-minute essays, write to me at raystop2@comcast.net. RayS.
