Being really overwhelmed at some points, I only had to reflect on my knowledge of emotional intelligence to control myself.
Based on my knowledge of self-talk, there is a need for me to work hard avoiding repeated thoughts. Most of what I witnessed while assessing this week’s assignment has always be in my mind when peer-assessing papers. I think I should spend some time reflecting on my work and improving. As I realized, giving high or low scores because you expect others to do the same to you is not an effective way, therefore I must concentrate on the content of the paper while grading. In addition, more time need to be allocated in this process in order to make it more effective.
I want to challenge the belief that some peers are bias while grading my paper, while others are careless or do not pay much attention. I have always got emotional when a low grade is given to any of my paper. Instead of being emotional, I want to challenge myself by accepting that my work was indeed not worth higher grades. In this way, I will certainly work harder to improve myself and my studies. Doing this will definitely helps in improving my ability of peer scoring
