Dear, Future CW2 Student(s)
During this upcoming semester you will learn in greater depth that you need to fine tune a couple more skills while you are writing at the college level. You will need to sharpen your tools in these areas and perfect them in order to succeed.
The first and most important skill that you will need to accomplish is to “write early and revise often.” This skill will help you become a better writing and be more prepared for during in a final draft. Another skill that you will need to perfect is Rhetorical knowledge. You will need to be able to tell the difference in the types of information you apply to your papers. You should pick wisely and actually pick an article that is creditable and works with your process by giving you the most information possible. Also, composing in electronic environments which couple be a struggle for some people. This for me involved blog posts, organizing your documents in google docs and sharing them with other students along with the professor. These two skills are critical in your success in college writing two.
One of the projects that I had to write early and revise often and compose in electronic environments was the Malone Paper. The paper required me to share my paper with a couple students and the professor in order to get feedback on my paper. I would recommend you do the same in order to fine tune your paper to exactly what the criteria is because it is a tricky paper to write and expand upon if you are unfamiliar with this type of writing style and concept.
Another paper I want to talk about it the Final paper for this class. The Information and surprising essay is one where you will definitely need to write early and revise often as well! This is a complex paper that will take a bit of time to acquire all the research and write the paper. Getting a hang of this will make your paper stand out and learn what exactly the professor is looking for. Additionally, this paper makes you fine tune your rhetorical knowledge by finding articles that can be used in this type of paper and recognizing the different types of literature you will need to use.
By recognizing your weaknesses in these areas you will become a better writer and succeed in college writing two.
