Question

what specific resources will you use to make sure this area is well presented and covered

Answer 1

I think Kate gave a great answer. The syllabus is key. I mostly use scholarly resources and a network of professional writers. What is the objective of your writing course? I would make sure we are on track to meet those metrics. What are your strengths and challenges? What are your interests? Based on those answers, will determine what sites and material work best.

Secondly, how do you learn best? Are you more motivated by an exchange of ideas? Are you an auditory learner? Are you a visual learner? Do you need "real life examples" or analogies? Do you need time to process information or are you quick to react? We would talk about your writing style and your writing voice and utilize resources (e.g., white board, video, email exchange) that support and strengthen your personal style.

Answer 2

Shun,

I'd like to help you, but I am not exactly sure what it is you are asking. Like Stephanie asked, would you mind rephrasing so that we can do a better job helping you out?

Answer 3

Can you give more information or rephrase the question?

Answer 4

I'm not exactly sure what you are referring to but with writing any paper, you can use references that have accurate citations coming from books, academic journals, scholarly articles, or online web articles. Government websites and articles are also usually one of the most reliable sources to look for information. It's always good to fact check your quotations and research that you plan to use in your paper. Always make sure to give credit to the article and author anytime you draw a reference from them.

Answer 5

Graphic organizers are a great way to start the writing process. Providing students with a map of how writing can be outlined and then put into paragraphs takes the pressure off of staring at a blank page. I also think it is good to have a writing notebook, so that each written entry is dated and kept in order. This way students can see their progress.

Copy editing is essential. A first draft, followed by a second draft allows students to self correct and see their ideas presented in a professional, clean manner. This honors their writing, teaches spelling, grammar and punctuation in a meaningful context.

Finally, it is important for students to write every day. Writing prompts can help with this, but I think encouraging students to write their thoughts just exactly as they occur in their minds is also important. A good writer has a unique voice. Helping students find their voice is a great way to enhance self esteem.

Answer 6

I would implement an learning plan, which is an organized description of the activities and resources I will provide and utilize to guide a student towards their specific learning objective.

Answer 7

I review the resources the student has at his/her fingertips to immediately help is important for the student to use. The class syllabus is essential. It gives an outline of what the teacher expects to be completed in the class. It will have the dates of when the assignments are due. The syllabus usually includes descriptions of each assignment. It is important that the student has organized notes. Help the student organize a notebook for he/she to be able to review important notes easily for both assignments and tests. After the student resources are used, I decide what resources I can find. I might do this online or at the library. It depends on the the tutoring situation. The tutor needs to help the student go the extra steps to achieve.

Answer 8

I agree with Debra.  It looks like this question is coming from the directions of a research paper and your teacher is asking you to mention specific sources, so that you know you aren't just getting one perspective on the topic.  I would be sure to use at least one primary and one secondary source and then from there you can vary to a newspaper article, book, online article(s), etc.  AND cite sources! Word 2007 can help you with this. :-)

Answer 9

   I like to you concept maps and brain storm what you are going to write first and then I like to add some details and examples to the concept map. Once the map is done, I start writing the essay and create a rough draft. I then edit the draft for voice, grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, as well as anything else that needs to be done. After that I create a second and a third draft, just to remove any problems with the word phrasing or repair anything that needs to be corrected. By the time I get through I usually get an "A" on the paper.

Answer 10

As for me, I will use samples of essay writing, web charts, smart boards and books, to make sure this area is well presented and covered. 

Answer 11

While you haven't been specific here, I'm going to take a leap.  There are many resources available for writing and I believe you are being asked to state what specific resources you will be using for your assignment (books, peer reviewed articles, web pages, etc...)  Be sure to ALWAYS cite your resources.  I hope this helps.  :)
