Image made by me Kelly Hughes Hi and welcome back to my blog, This week I am going to be looking back on the group project. The project had been going okay at the start. I asked my group mates to send me some videos of them reading the script, no one got back so I made my own video just in case they were not able to.

I have learned from the peer review task that I should add a bibliography at the end of every blog and add in text citations. I also need to start talking about the experience I have on the topic and how I feel about the topic which I have started to do in my recent blogs and plan to change on my previous blogs. I feel that my writing and reading skills have improved since my first feedback and even more since I got more feedback from other peers. I have received some great feedback overall to help me improve my blogs and know where I can make content easier and more enjoyable to read. Concise writing goal is to use the most effective words.
