Revision Checklist for Essays Many students tell us that they don't know what to check for once they have finished their essay. They usually know to check for grammar, punctuation, and spelling, but other details are often seen as less important because of the high emphasis placed on these problems in their early education. Writing experts generally agree, however, that while details such as grammar and punctuation are important, they are far less important than solid organization, fresh writing, and creative content. The following guidelines are designed to give students a checklist to use, whether they are revising individually or as part of a peer review team. Organization Is there a clear introduction, body, and conclusion? Content and Style Does the essay show that the writer has a knowledge of the audience? Research and Sources Are all sources credible? Proofreading Has the writer checked grammar and punctuation?

A Brief History of Writing Presenter: Writing – it helps us perform all sorts of activities every day. It’s easy to assume that writing’s always been around. But like most things, it had to be invented. Have you ever written something down so you can remember it later on? Maybe you hear a good song on the radio and you decide to write it down on a piece of paper. The earliest examples of writing are probably on clay tablets like these, written with the script cuneiform. If you were a leader of a big old city, you’d probably want to keep track of what’s going on, so you’re going to write things down like how much money you’ve given people, or how much stuff you’ve got in storage. One of the most famous types of ancient writing is of course hieroglyphs, used by the Egyptians thousands of years ago. Hello Paul! Paul: Good. Presenter: Thank you very much for letting me come to your studio. Presenter : And is this what they wrote with, back in Egypt? Paul: Possibly. Presenter: Oh, wow! Paul: Yes. Presenter: Let it flow.

Grammar Starting a Sentence With Or, And or But In the not so distant past, an English assignment daring to begin a sentence with a conjunction would have been returned with red ink splattered all over it. But, as Bob Dylan sang, the times they are a-changin'. Or rather, the rules of grammar are reverting to a mode first made fashionable as long ago as the 18th century. Starting a Sentence With And In the 1700s it was perfectly acceptable to start sentences with a conjunction. It maintains an easy, conversational style.It preserves a link between sentences, whilst still delivering in a short, punchy vein. Is Starting a Sentence With 'But' Allowed? Grammar is a minefield into which only the most foolhardy march unprotected. Dictionary of Modern American Usage, by Bryan A. When is it Incorrect to Start Sentences With Or, And or But? This article uses several examples that show how sentences can quite naturally begin with a conjunction. Formal alternatives to 'and', include words such as 'furthermore', 'moreover' and 'additionally'.

How to approach discursive writing Getting started, as much for people writing in their own language as for those writing in a foreign language, is one of the most difficult and inhibiting phases of the writing process. Idea generating is therefore key in facilitating the transition from thought to paper. A brainstorming activity is an effective way of getting ideas flowing. Brainstorming Assessing ideas A model text Focus on model text coherence Cohesion Organising ideas Groups Writing Correction and reading Brainstorming Brainstorming consists of group discussion. Brainstorming involves thinking quickly and without inhibition, which can ultimately lead to an interesting piece of writing. Assessing ideas The relevance and practicality of the ideas produced during brainstorming can be assessed more objectively in the next stage, that is in encouraging students to extend their ideas into a mind map, or spidergram. It is in this stage that students can judge the quality and usefulness of their ideas.

How to Prepare for Writing a Novel It’s all in your mind: you’ve got the perfect setting, plots are unfolding, and characters are begging to be born. It’s time to set them free. Change them from jumbled thoughts in your brain to words on paper. As you know, November marks the return of many scribophiles’ favorite celebration—NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). Tip #1: Get Organized. It’s tempting to jump right in and start typing, but that’s like going hiking without a map. Tip #2: Stay Motivated. Some days you’ll do anything to avoid writing: chores, taxes, even reading articles about how to write. Tip #3: Meeting Expectations. Expectations are not requirements. Whether you create an hour-by-hour schedule, play perfect music, or eat the best foods, you’ll eventually need to write and rewrite, then revise and write some more.
