[object Object],[object Object],The Writing Process
[object Object],Of course, there is a series of steps that should be followed before writing a final version to hand in.
[object Object],If you do not take that step into consideration, the ideas you present in your first draft will not be really logical or organized. Then you will have to restructure the whole text from the very first sentence.
[object Object],For now, keep that step in mind, and try to go through it every time you create any piece of writing.
[object Object],[object Object],b. The text itself.
[object Object],a. The whole name of the university. b. The name of the institute. c. Name of the department. d. The program in which you study. e. The name of the “cátedra” the subject you  are taking belongs to. f. The name of the subject you are taking. g. The section and the group you belong to.
[object Object],The order of the information should be kept as it was explained before. (from general to specific) Your name or the teacher’s name is  NOT  part of the heading! Remember:
[object Object]

[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
[object Object],If your reader understands what you are trying to communicate in your text, then you are definitely on the right track!
