10 Practical tips for giving effective feedback on writing
Good feedback can transform writing from just OK to memorable and share-worthy.
There are few things more inspiring and gratifying than the experience of co-creation, and when you get it right, the process of giving a writer feedback and watching their work develop can be immensely rewarding.
Here are our top tips on giving writing feedback, so you can experience this feeling too.
1. Understand the level of feedback required
There’s a big difference between editing, proofreading, and giving constructive feedback, and not just in terms of the amount of time each takes.
The level of feedback you’re giving will depend on:

• 
  The type of content — Is it a blog post, a novel, a friend’s creative writing project, or a piece of student work? Is there a rubric or handout to follow, or are you on your own?
  
• 
  The context — What is your relationship with the writer? Is your aim to correct the writing, or to provide constructive criticism to develop the writer’s potential? Do you have an existing editorial relationship and feedback “shorthand,” or do you need to explain every suggestion? 
  
• 
  The content’s stage of development — Which stage of the writing process are you in? Are you reviewing an early draft, or are you polishing a “finished” final draft for publication? Are they seeking writing advice or thorough proofreading?
  

Having a clear understanding of the level of input expected of you (and how granular your feedback should be) can save a lot of time and effort — there’s no point doing a fine proofread if you’re critiquing an early draft that will still change a lot.
2. Give feedback in context
When providing feedback on writing, make sure your suggestions are easy to understand (and find) by providing them as close as possible to the copy in question. It’s easy for feedback to get lost or forgotten when it’s removed from the context to which it applies — or not recorded at all. 
Margin comments are good, but electronic feedback is far superior to scrawling notes in ant-writing on a hard copy.
Most word processing tools let you highlight text and attach comments, making them better-suited to giving feedback than, say, a CMS (content management system) used for publishing blogs to a website. As a result, it’s generally good practice to use these for content approval workflows and then upload the copy to the CMS.
Also, don’t sleep on the various markup settings available in word processing tools like Microsoft Word and Google Docs. You can choose between “Edit Mode” and “Suggestion Mode” and toggle on “track changes” so the writer can see (and resolve) every change you’ve made or suggested. This helps them learn more than if you’d made the changes yourself.
