PROCESS OF WRITING
Ideas :
- Choose a topic that interests you or fulfills the requirements. (Topic : The Impact of Plastic use on the environment : why should it be curbed?).
- Brainstorm ideas around the topic: use mind maps, bullet points, or lists to jot down key concepts.
- Conduct research (if needed) to gather facts, data, or supporting arguments. (Research : Find data on plastic pollution, its effect on marine life, recycling rates, etc.).
- Narrow your focus to a specific angle or thesis.
- Outline the structure: plan the introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion (Outline : Introduction (background on plastic use), main points (ocean pollution, harm to wildlife, contribution to climate change), conclusion (why curbing plastic is essential).
Ideas :
- Write your essay or piece based on your outline. Don’t worry about grammar or perfect wording just yet.
- Focus on getting your ideas down and following the flow of your outline.
- Allow your thoughts to flow naturally, knowing that you’ll refine them later.
- Don't hesitate to include placeholders if you’re unsure about specific details.
- Begin writing the introduction that gives a brief overview of the plastic problem.
- Expand on each main point in the body paragraphs, supporting them with facts.
- Write the conclusion that summarizes your argument and calls for action.
Ideas :
- Reread your draft and ask yourself : Does it make sense? Is it organized logically?
- Look for places where you can clarify your ideas or add more detail.
- Ensure each paragraph transitions smoothly to the next.
- Rework your thesis statement if needed to make it clearer or stronger.
- Add or remove sections to improve the flow and structure.
- Ask for feedback from others if possible (friends, teachers, or colleagues).
Ideas :
- Focus on fixing grammar, punctuation, and spelling mistakes.
- Check for sentence clarity, and remove any repetitive or awkward phrasing.
- Improve word choice by replacing vague words with more precise terms.
- Ensure consistency in formatting (font, citations, margins, etc.).
- Look for overused words or phrases and revise for variety and impact.
- Correct typos, refine sentence structure, and ensure technical terms are properly explained.
- Make sure citations and references for data are correctly formatted (if applicable).
Ideas :
- Ensure the document is polished and ready for submission or publication.
- Check the final presentation, whether it’s an online post, printed essay, or a presentation.
