The Goals of Writing
Furthermore, the students need to shape their writing
to capture attention of other viewers and revise if
necessary.
As survey by the Chronicle of Higher Education
showed, more than a half of students that enter
college have never written a paper that is longer than
five pages.
Page 10
The Goals of Writing
This suggests that many students do not have
necessary skills set because they do not
understand the complexity of college writing!
Page 11
The Goals of Writing
In order to build a reasonable argument, you have to
use works of other scientists, results from studies and
personal observations.
Everything that is written should be supported.
Page 12
Habits to Unlearn
Besides, students may have many bad habits that
need to be un-learned in college.
For example, some students may use awkward
grammatical instructions because they were told to
avoid first person writing in school by their teachers.
Page 13
Habits to Unlearn
It is fair to say that it is normal for a student to come
to college and continue to improve his or her skills
because college writing is a complex process that
requires most of the knowledge and skills of young
writers.
Page 14
Habits to Unlearn
So all mentioned aspects are the reasons why school
students have poor writing skills.
Be sure to improve your own abilities before you
enter a college.
It is an important stage in life so you need to be
prepared as much as you can.
