      Heather E Heying Retweeted Carol Blymire

      When I taught undergrads, I gave extensive writing critique. Extensive. Some students revealed to me how shocked they were—they had never before been critiqued. But we often worked through many edits, and they became grateful. And they became better writers. And thinkers.https://twitter.com/CarolBlymire/status/1149815119607672832 …

      I asked a colleague about it, and he relayed a story about the time he gave an early 20something feedback on a writing assignment. The young man quit the next day and had his parents call to tell him what a terrible boss he was for “correcting work that didn’t need corrected.”

      Agree. It's heartbreaking how many college students, upon getting real critical feedback on writing, will say they've never gotten serious feedback in K-12. Ever.

          working to make class sizes smaller in public schools would be a helpful step in solving this issue. it’s not realistic that teachers with 30-40 students in each of their classes will be able to provide substantial feedback for all of students, having 6-7 classes that size

          The only thing I can remember about wrting class/english from 6th grade on was Intro-body-conclusion. As long as I had that, I would get an A, even if my grammar was horrific. Thanks for the lazy education.

          In Sophomore year I was sent to the Writing Lab by my Sociology professor. My spirit and confidence crushed, I came out the other end knowing how to write. I hated him at the moment. Now he is likely one of the most influential instructors I had. Ever.
