Problem: Article: Performance reviews can vary depending on the business. Some companies may send out an electronic performance review. Others will have policies that outline very specific categories that they want you to discuss.  Use the format desired by the company, if there is one. Be careful to follow any templates the company provides carefully so you don’t miss anything or look sloppy. Sometimes the company will just ask you to fill out a form. In other cases, you will need to turn in a fully written review. It’s even better if you figure out what your company wants well before the performance review is due. That way, you can keep track of accomplishments that fit the required categories throughout the year. You can also make sure you fine-tune your performance to meet performance review categories. This needs to highlight your best work, so make sure the review is typo and grammar-error free. It’s a good idea to have more than one draft, and to work ahead on it.  Remember that this review will end up part of your permanent employment record, so take it very seriously. If anything ever happens to your employment, and you want to contest it, the performance reviews in the file could be critical. It’s critical that you use professional language in the review. Be concise also. To be concise, single out a handful of things you did best during the year to discuss more thoroughly. You can keep the performance review on a couple of pages. You do not need to inundate your bosses with too many details about every single thing. Focus on the highlights, while backing them up with some specific evidence. But learn how to self-edit. No one wants to read a 30-page performance review. Before you write the review, you should gather key documents that will make the writing easier. It’s a great idea to collect these throughout the course of the year.  You may want to include examples of your work, if the company’s format allows this with the performance review. Choose the samples carefully; they need to highlight your absolute best work. Gather any objectives that were set in the previous review. Gather any performance notes you took or progress reviews your boss gave you mid-year (if you have such things). Any personal work notes you took during the year might help you with the writing process also. Such year-round journals will help you make your review more specific and meaningful. It’s a great idea to get these in writing. What exactly does your company expect of you? If you aren’t clear what these are, ask. It’s very important to link your performance evaluation to the company’s goals for you.  You could deconstruct your job description. Keep in mind that it might be out-of-date and doesn’t include some unstated expectations, though. But it can help you organize your thoughts. Break down each job responsibility listed and decide how you’ve met it in a practical sense. You have a right to receive clear expectations from your company. If you don't have any, it can be too easy for subjective, unfair criticisms to creep into a review.
Summary: Figure out the format your company wants. Don’t rush the review. Stay organized throughout the year and before writing. Determine your company’s expectations.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Begin sewing the fabric pieces together along the curved edges that you just pinned together.  Do not sew any of the other edges yet. Remove the pins from the fabric right before you sew over them.  Make sure that your stitches are about ½ of an inch (or 1 ½ cm) away from the edges of the fabric. This will help to create a strong seam. After you have finished sewing, trim off any excess thread from the areas you just sewed.
Summary: Sew the curved edges.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Dogs are relatively simple creatures. If they perform a behavior that results in a reward, they will repeat the behavior expecting a reward in the future. If a behavior does not result in a payoff, they will have no reason to repeat it.  Some dogs will just sit and look at you, while others might whine at you until they get what they want. If the dog does not get what it wants, it may even bark at you, paw at you, or climb up on the couch or chair to get closer to you to make its point. If you feed them or pet the dog when it does these things, you reward the behavior with a treat or pat on the head. A food reward is a very common payoff, but throwing a ball or giving the dog attention is also a form of positive reinforcement. For some dogs, only one or two payoffs are needed to train a dog to beg. Undoing this training is a matter of removing the reinforcement, challenging though this may be. The most basic and important step in the process of undoing the negative training that has led to begging is to stop feeding the dog from the table.  Most people give in every once in a while and give some scraps to their begging dog, and this reinforces the undesirable behavior. Refusing to acknowledge your dog when you are eating is crucial to both preventing a begging habit and stopping an existing problem. No matter how much your dog barks, whines, or stares at you when you eat, do not feed it. Unless you are giving the dog a command, don’t give your dog attention by talking to it, or even mentioning its name. No matter how frustrated you get, do not yell at a begging dog. Attention of any kind, even such negative attention, can reinforce the begging behavior. Even making eye-contact with your dog  is a form of attention, which rewards the behavior you are trying to extinguish. Even the most subtle attention can encourage the begging behavior.
Summary:
Understand the behavior. Don't feed the dog. Don't talk to the dog. Don't even look at the dog.
