The text written by Collin Brooke and Allison Carr, Failure Can Be an Important Part of Writing Development, talks about how teaching writing should focus just as much on failure as it does on success. Successful writers do not get a perfect draft on the first try, it needs revisions and editing. As students progress and school, so does their writing. They must have the opportunity to try and fail to be able to learn from those failures. Students often avoid failure due to grades, but that damages the learning process. The most important thing for students to know is that failure is an opportunity for growth.
I chose this gif in response to this reading because without failing, you cannot succeed. Being able to fail and still having a good attitude about it is important for bettering yourself and your work.
