Describe The Central Strategies Of My Writing Process

Improved Essays
In regards to my writing process, there have been some central strategies that I have developed over time and some strategies that I have had for as long as I can remember. For example, one skill that I have developed from high school has been to annotate, mark up, and take notes throughout my readings. I found that taking notes really helps me, not only to remember what I read but to go back and be able to point out something in my reading easily. In addition, it helped me understand the readings better. Another skill that I already had but expanded on when I entered college was making outlines. At first I start out by jotting down my ideas. But, slowly throughout college I started to notice that my outlines began to become more detailed

I like to write during early mornings or in the evening when it is quiet. My reading table is facing towards the window so when fresh air is in my room, fresh ideas generate inside me as well. I make sure to have some healthy snacks and a bottle of water in front me…

    My writing process coming into junior year was quite flawed and would go moderately like this: I would try and start with some hook that at least sounded like it related to the topic I was assigned. I then added a thesis that did not sound like total trash that included exactly what I planned to discuss. As I wrote the rest of my essays, I would sometimes realize there was something I felt added to the argument’s appeal, and after adding it to the body paragraphs, I summed it up in a couple words and squeezed it into my thesis. That was about the maximum amount of revising I would do for my essays. My decently crafted essays contained simple diction with a few SAT words I remembered while writing thrown in awkwardly.…

Banking, one of the fourteen ‘topics’, stood out the most for me, mainly but I have personally experienced this problem countless times in a classroom setting. Most of the incidences happen when the teacher becomes impatient with the class. Instead of leading a discussion where the students are in control of their own ideas, the teacher would push along and accidentally dissuade thinking. Banking is essentially the concept of math, where there is a single input and a single output, which doesn’t allow for much thought or critical thinking.…
