Planning an assignment
We are often so fixated with the final product that we jump in and start writing, neglecting some of the crucial steps of the writing process.
The process of writing often involves these kinds activities:
- Researching
- Reading
- Making notes
- Analysing
- Critiquing
- Comparing
- Contrasting
- Forming ideas
- Developing an argument
- Drafting
- Editing and proofreading
This clearly highlights that writing is a non-linear process, and that lots happens before we actually sit down and write.
