The undergraduate creative writing students who completed this study observed writing workshops, interviewed writing faculty, surveyed writing students, and analyzed over three hundred peer-to-peer feedback letters. The results of the study showed that undergraduate writing students often supplied reaction-based comments that were negative and vague, but rarely gave specific and positive advice that was technique-based. This study suggests that undergraduate writers would benefit from pedagogies developing more balanced peer-to-peer feedback in the creative writing workshop. ER -
