B.    REFLECTION

After studying the idea of peer feedback in language learning logs in the context of teaching EFL writing, I was curious to see if it applied to news writing style. I felt compelled to learn more about this topic because I was unfamiliar with it, especially in light of its connection to my coursework in news, features, and editorial classes. Through my study, I learned that peer criticism for news writing style usually consists of scoring elements on a rubric that ranges from great to inadequate. These elements include the headline, lead, tone and voice, language characteristics and terminology, quotes, and attribution. This new information has broadened my perspective and made it clear how important it is to follow certain guidelines when gathering and reporting news.

C.    SUMMARY

English as a foreign language (EFL) is essential for worldwide involvement and successful communication in the field of writing instruction. The goal of EFL training is to help non-native speakers communicate effectively in academic, professional, and cultural contexts around the globe by fostering the development of their grammar, vocabulary, and stylistic skills. Beyond language skills, EFL writing instruction fosters creativity and critical thinking, enabling students to produce writing that is both persuasive and appropriate for their culture. In the end, developing one's EFL writing skills gives people the tools they need to live in a connected society, allowing them to comprehend different points of view more deeply and be able to make significant contributions to the global conversation.
