Evaluations

Last night professor Bonica sent me the peer evaluations that my classmates did for me. I loved reading them, even the ones that had some constructive criticism for me. In my opinion, peer evals motivate me to work harder. Most people said I am falling behind on my blog posts, which I already knew. For some reason hearing it from people besides myself encourages me to do something about it. I now feel as though I will actually start to make sure I am blogging more so that my classmates see that I take what they say and improve upon it. I want them to know that what they think of my work actually matters to me, and I take their opinions seriously. Besides the pointers for improving my blog, they comments I got were really uplifting. People said I am a leader in the class, that I am constantly participating, and that I make insightful comments. It makes me feel humbled to hear these comments from my peers. I like to see that my hard work is being appreciated and that they feel as though I am making a difference in the classroom. The comments that I received from this peer evaluation sort of reminded me of one of the recommendation letters that I received from my high school teacher for college. He talked about how I was someone he looked forward to having in his class because I make it enjoyable. This is something I want to be able to continue. I like to make class fun, and I like to be able to enjoy being there, and if I can make others feel the same way, then that awesome.
