Feedback from other students was it useful? Why or why not?

The feedback from other students I found was useful. It helped me to ensure I was on the right track when completing my assessment piece and also picked out specific points I needed to focus on. By giving feedback to other students you were able to see how other people interpreted the topic, wrote their assessment piece and related it to their personal experiences. This helped use to broaden our knowledge in the Business Industry. Therefore I was able to go back and add more information in or remove information – if the people needed to. My main feedback I got back was that it was fantastic work but I have to check spelling and grammar. I already realised I had to check spelling and grammar due to the fact I had only just wrote it when I put my assessment piece on my blog. I hadn’t had time to edit my draft! I had a lot of people telling me they could relate to my assessment work which was fantastic. The piece of feedback I did not find useful was when people wrote one or two sentences saying it was fantastic and it made me review my work. That feedback helped the reviewer or my work not me to improve my work!

On a different note I did not like how we were put into groups to give feedback. The reason behind this is because I only received feedback from Rachelle Mertens who was in my team which made this section hard to do. I also had a lot of people that said they would give me feedback and in return I gave them feedback. However, after I gave them feedback the other people did not return the favour. This made it extremely hard to get three critical feedbacks.  Overall the feedback people gave me was beneficial because I was able to see if I was on the right track for Assessment 1.
