9. Provide several kinds of feedback – Sometimes speak directly to your students about their writing. Other times write comments to them on their papers. Other times let their fellow students read and comment on their papers. The feedback should be specific and related to what has been taught. Also, the feedback should not be overly negative. Always try to find positive encouragement and compliments to tell the writers. This will balance the corrections and criticism.
