Discuss revision and editing, and justify the practice of having students revise their writing before editing

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: Revising requires writers to analyze their writing from a reader's perspective. Revising focuses on the content and the organization of the writing as well as the words used by the author with an eye towards the purpose and audience. Editing attends to punctuation, correctness, and appearance. Having students revise before editing contributes to the writer's fluency and confidence. A young writer's content should be valued above grammatical correctness to encourage confidence and maintain fluency in writing.
