After reading Paul Graham’s essay entitled “The Age of the Essay”, Michael Dickens brings up the a great point of spending one month per semester on writing essays. I too believe this is a great way for students to develop unique writing skills or even strive to improve on their writing. I’ve notice in class we don’t take much time to learn how to write a proper essay. We just read articles, literature and write it into a traditional hamburger format essay being intro, three body paragraphs and a conclusion. This does not allow me to improve on my writing nor challenges me to improve my writing in any way.
