Using Technology with Writing - 3 views

  • When writing a first draft, complete sentences must be formulated
  • Traditionally, most composition teachers have encouraged their students to create some form of pre-writing or outline before writing one word nonetheless, there are always students who can write a structured paper, spontaneously. Whether students make a traditional outline or write spontaneously, they will be organizing the ideas for the paper.
  • Word Processing enables students to write freely with the confidence that they will be able to make changes at a later date easily and quickly.

      So... right... texts and Texts are so mixed up in our lives now in a way that is more social than writing has ever been before. Like I wrote texts, facebook statues, emails so much more often than we wrote postcards and letters and passed notes before.
    • Lucy Arnold
       
      I can't think of a Facebook status report right now. Will you write one for me and I'll plagiarize it?
    • Lacy Manship
       
      I think you just wrote it. Copy and paste
