peer conferencing

Peer Conferencing was very helpful for me because they helped me find all of my mistakes and errors in my paper. It is not a common practice for me to let others read my work because I do not like people to judge my work other then my teacher. Pros to using it is students get to see their mistakes that they might not have found by themselves. It gives students a chance to practice their skills of editing and proof reading their papers and other classmates papers. It also gives students a chance to get ideas from others, and techniques to write with from other students. Cons to peer conferencing: One is some students might feel embarrassed by their writing and having another peer see it might bother them. A peer might suggest something in the paper and it be wrong and the other student changes it. I do think it is good to use in the classroom but not the only thing to use in the classroom.
