Assignment 3: Essay Writing
Image taken from liskw.wordpress.com For their third assignment, I wanted to get them to be conscious about the essay writing process. So I decided to give them a free topic writing assignment which focuses on the process of writing. And I got them to work together in groups to complete the essay. After the completion of the group essays, I will require them to do one individually. The best individual essay will be allowed publication on the respective group blogs. In this assignment, I will walk with them through the various stages in writing: from the choosing of ideas, to the planning, the revising & the publishing of an essay. An example essay will be posted up on my personal blog soon. Guiding Statements/Questions: Choose Topic Brainstorm for Ideas Plan: pick best ideas & arrange them Draft: expand the ideas & start writing the essay Revise: check grammar, spelling, flow, cohesion & etc Rewrite
