Learning to Write by E3000

For the first five years of your child’s life, you will be the biggest education influence he or she will have.  Of course your child may have daycare or something similar when he or she gets to interact with other children.  But the process of learning starts from day 1.   From just a few months old, these tiny humans start learning about their surroundings and what they are capable of doing.

As your child grows through the years, there are several critical learning landmarks.  The first few are learning to speak and learning to walk.  Next, they will learn to read.  The last critical landmark in learning through early childhood is learning to write. Whilst your child becomes more aware of the world around him, and begins to learn the basics of expressing one’s self in society, writing forms an integral part of the education process, and must be encouraged throughout your child’s ongoing development to promote intellectual stimulation and a thirst for knowledge. In this article we will look at some of the most effective methods to teach and enhance your child’s writing abilities, and the impact this can have on future development.

Learning to write is an important first step in encouraging creativity amongst children. Creativity is immensely important in education, as the parent of innovation and quick thinking. By providing a means to channel the creativity necessary to breed intelligence, i.e. writing, you are giving your child an immensely valuable problem solving tool, and allowing expression and natural intellectual development to take its course. Through promoting a culture of writing, and importantly writing correctly both grammatically and spelling-wise, your child will become more proficient at reading, which again is essential to breed an intelligent and rational thought process with an understanding of concepts and ideas throughout the process of education.

One of the main ways to encourage your child to write is to combine it with the process of learning to read. As you teach your child to read and pronounce the written word, encourage him or her also to pick up a pencil and form the letters and shapes she is reading. By linking the two together, you can build bridges between the various aspects of intelligence required for each to create a more rounded picture of the fundamentals of education. This should allow your child to progress more steadily through both disciplines, to the benefit of his overall education.

Another good way of teaching your child through the learning to write process is by making writing a game. Call out words and ask the child to write the phonetically. Go through with your child afterwards and discuss each word, getting the child to read it back. Then, provide your child with the correct spelling of the word and explain the sounds to him. Play the game again with the same words and offer rewards and praise for each correct answer. By doing this kind of routine with your child, you can provide structured learning for long term progress through learning to write and read.

Teaching your child how to write is the first step in encouraging independent thought and learning. It is important to understand that the quicker your child embraces literacy in all forms, the more able he or she will be to adapt within an education environment to new concepts and new ideas, progressively as they become more complex and in-depth. By allowing your child to develop the means to express themselves, you create channels for creativity and learning that will stay with your child throughout their life, to the benefit of their intellectual development.

Reflective Essay Image - Fe Ilya

What is the easiest essay to write?  A persuasive essay?  An argumentative essay?  A persuasive essay is challenging as it requires the ability to persuade the audience without alienating all readers.  And the argumentative essay requires a balanced view of the topic when arguing for and against.  The title of the easiest essay to write then goes to a third essay type – the reflective essay.

A reflective essay as its name suggests,  focuses on reflection and gentle consideration of the topic.  This is a form of essay writing in which you put down your thoughts. It is quite a flexible form of writing, but there are some general rules that you should stick to. You will have a general layout for your essay, which includes an introduction, a main body and a conclusion. An interesting aspect of reflective essay writing is that you and your reader may benefit by what you reflect on.

Your reflective essay may discuss a course taught at college. Your teacher will read whatever you put down. This can be advantageous to you as well as your teacher because you can express your positive and negative thoughts about what you have learned and the manner in which it was taught. In your essay, some of your thoughts may include your descriptions of what you enjoyed in a course along with descriptions of your teacher’s teaching style. You can also include the parts that you did not find interesting. Your teacher will take note of this area. Perhaps some solution could be achieved through this, as your teacher might work to make a less interesting area of a course more stimulating in future. Therefore, future students of the same course will benefit from what you write.

Reflective essay writing is something that you will do throughout your education. If you happen to become a teacher, you will need to write many more essays. This is because reflective essay writing is an important self-assessment tool for students as well as teachers. Through this form of writing you come to know a lot more about how much you have gained through your course work.

When you get down to writing your essay, there are few points you need to keep in mind. You should remember that your introduction is used for describing or explaining the background of your course. You also need to mention your role in the course you describe, along with the reasons you had for selecting it. If your essay is based on a project you have worked on, you need to mention your goals for further developing the project.

In your reflective essay body paragraphs, you will need to describe the process you used for working on your project. You need to describe this process from its starting point to the end stages. Your essay should reveal detail about strong and weak points in your coursework or project. You also need to share your positive and negative experiences, as well as your feelings about working with others.

For concluding your essay, there are few important points you need to consider. You need to determine whether or not you have achieved your goals. You also need to think about what you would like to change in your course work or project. Maybe you will not benefit from this change, but other students will have a chance to do so. In your conclusion, you should think about the expertise you have gained and how you would apply it in your professional life.

Eye Catching Headlines by gtrwndr87

What is the most important feature in an online article on a web page, or even a college essay for that matter?

It’s the title.

A title is like a flashing neon sign.  They have to grab attention.  Think about it – in the digital age there is so much information competing for attention.  Your article does not get special preference – it has to compete just as hard to be read.

When asked this question, author Steve Gillman said that digital article titles have to do more than those in the print world. In a print magazine, you just need to catch the attention of the reader. The title doesn’t really even have to tell the reader what the article is about, since the magazine it is in will be on a specific subject area. Readers know that if it is in a fishing magazine it about a fishing-related topic.

In an online article, on the other hand, the title has to tell the potential reader what the article is about. He may see nothing but the title in the search engine results, and if he doesn’t know what it’s about, he’s likely to just click on the next link. Online article titles have to be found in the search engines as well, meaning they have to have keywords in them that people are looking for. Of course, just like print articles, they should also catch the reader’s attention.

My Best Article Titles

Sometimes you can do all three of these things pretty well in one article. An example is my article titled “Cheap Homes In Nice Towns.” You know what the article is about, it is okay as an attention grabber (not great), and “cheap homes” is a keyword that many people search for each month. At one of the article directories I have submitted it to, it has been read over 17,000 times – more than double the traffic of any of the other 550 articles I have there (many have been read only a couple hundred times).

However, in checking the number of times my various articles have been viewed at this directory, I have often been surprised – enough so to remind me that “rules” are only guidelines. For example, two of the most-read articles I have there are “Remove Permanent Marker From Carpet,” and “How To Get Candle Wax Out Of Carpet” (about 6,000 times each).

These are not attention-grabbing titles, but they are also not topics covered well on the Internet. Obviously there is something to be said for utilitarian articles with good keywords that are not too competitive. Add easy-to-compete-for keywords to the list of things to try for in an article title.

In the top five for visits are the article titles, “Really Cheap Plane Tickets,” (6,400) and “Cheap International Plane Tickets” (10,050). A promise of a way to save money seems to be a good bet. My article “Worry – Five Ways To Eliminate It,” has been viewed 3,300 times, but it is fairly new, making it the most views per month by far. I suppose worry is a common enough problem that people need a solution to.

Article titles that promise to help with a problem work, then. So do those that promise to teach the reader something new, and those that are directly targeting the keywords they are searching. What else can make for a good article title?

- Ask a question: “Do You Make This Writing Mistake?”

- Tell them they can do something: “You Can Write A Better Title Today”

- Promise some value: “Ten Ways You Can Make More Money”

- Use the words “how to”: “How To Overcome Writer’s Block”

- Involve them with a story: “You Quit Your Job – Now What?”

Watch the reports (at the article directories and on your web sites) and try to learn from them. Of course those statistics for “views” I mention above only tell me how many times people started to read my articles. Did they finish the articles? Did they then click through to my web sites? There is more to good online writing than good article titles.

Essay Types by Tnarik

What are the different essay types?  Generally, there are about 6 different essay types and each will be used depending on what you are trying to achieve with your essay.  If you are instructed to use a particular type of essay, then this article will give you a quick overview of what you have to focus on for that type.  If you are given the choice of essay type, then you can make this decision based on a few questions about your topic.  In particular, what technique works for your selected topic? What kind of writing style is suitable? What tone is efficient?

Here are the common types of essays that can help students on their paper writing activities:

Persuasive or argumentative essay – A persuasive or argumentative essay makes a claim or position regarding a subject for the main purpose of persuasion. It is usually presented with statistics, expert opinions, and well-supported arguments about a claim or controversy. In using an argumentative tone in essay writing, it is essential that the issue to be discussed is two-sided wherein the writer takes a stand. Also, the main argument must be clear, exact, and highly focused.

Comparison and Contrast essay – This type of essay writing takes two subjects and identifies their similarities and differences. A good comparison and contrast paper possesses a valid basis for comparison – a limited focus and catchy information. In writing essay using compare and contrast, it is vital that the purpose for comparing and contrasting the two subjects is made clear. This purpose is crucial because it provides focus to the paper.

Descriptive essay – Descriptive essays’ aim is to provide a vivid picture of a certain person, place, object, or event. It offers concise details that enable the readers to imagine the subject described. Generally, descriptive essays explain the “what, why, when, where, and how” of a topic.

Definition essay- Definition essay writing demands writers to present a meaning of a term that goes beyond the objective definition offered in the dictionary. Essay writers need to provide a more focused and exact description of the term than what is offered in reference sources.

Narrative essay – A narrative essay tells a story in a sequence of events. This type of essay is told from a defined point of view, often the author’s. It offers specific and often sensory details to get the reader involved in the elements and sequence of the story. Verbs must be vivid and precise.

Evaluation essay – The prime purpose of this essay writing style is to form judgment on certain ideas, places, services, etc. basing on clear-cut criteria. An informed opinion is critical to the development of this essay. It is important to use facts, statistics and other authoritative resources to establish and organize the criteria to present a substantial analysis and evaluation.

Essay writing is just one tough kind of various paper writing activities. Students usually ask for professional essay help to assist them on what type of approach or style to use in their composition.

Exam strategies by PurplePick

I use to hate exams.  And I did quite a few of them with two degrees from separate universities.  Don’t get me wrong.  I loved learning and still do.  But I hated exams.  I failed to see (and still do) how 2 or 3 hours of writing could determine my understanding of a topic.  I have messy slow writing (oh, my precious keyboard, I worship thee).  That made my exams 10% harder even before someone said ‘turnover your paper and start’.

I use to think that exams were a test of how well I could cram useless facts into my brain long enough to regurgitate them on paper.  Of course, these set of facts had to be quickly replaced by the next set of facts for another exam.  And I am not the only one to share that conclusion.  Steve Gillman wrote on his site that exams area a dreadful experience for every student. But essay exams are even more petrifying, terrifying, and nerve-racking. Unlike an objective test, essay exams are not checking to see if you have learned certain pieces of information, they ask for your understanding of the main concepts, ideas, and theories of the course presented in a smoothly written form. Quite an annoying combination.

And since essay exams are more demanding than the rest of exams you sit in your student’s life, they call for greater preparation. Here are some tips that will help you pass your essay type exams with flying colours.

1. Writing Identifications

Usually essay exams comprise of two tasks: writing the identification of a term and composing an essay. In both cases you must present your own knowledge on the topic and present it in correct and plain English.

Identifications are short essays that give precise definitions on the name or a term in a single paragraph of between three to five sentences. Make sure that your identifications have:

1. the names of the individuals involved in events;
2. their notable accomplishments;
3. a precise identification of the time frame for the identification;
4. the appropriate geographic reference relating to the term;
5. historical significance of the term identification.

With these features your identifications will be fully-developed, precise and smooth.

2. Taking the Essay Type Exam

When writing an essay type exam, it is advised to follow the set procedure of essay writing. It will help you organise your thoughts, tune for essay writing, and write a well-structured and well-thought essay.

So, first, look through the list of the questions you will need to answer in your essay. It is often advised to start with questions you can do readily. As you read, make tentative choices of the questions you will answer, and jot down the ideas that cross your mind.

Do not worry, if you don’t have a definite answer on some question. Focus on what you do know about the question, not on what you don’t. Postpone the question you feel dubious about, and the answer will come all by itself when you expect it the least.

Secondly, make sure you understand what you are asked to do in your essay. Try looking closely at what the question is directing you to do, and try to understand the sort of writing that is required. For example, “analyse” suggests summarising fully with detail in accordance with the selected focus, considering composing parts of the idea and their interrelationships.

Along with “analysing”, you may be asked to classify, define, discuss, illustrate, outline, etc. Be sure you know definitions of these words by heart. Otherwise, you may become flustered, lose concentration, and even go blank.

Once you have chosen the topic and know how to take your stand, write down at least three supporting sentences you are going to build your essay around. Make sure they are followed by convincing supporting evidence in form of quotations, facts and figures you came across in the course.

When writing essay answers, you should favour a direct, concise, and precise writing style. Do not waste time trying to compose a graceful lead paragraph, instead, get to the point quickly and directly. State what you intend to discuss and develop those ideas with well-chosen examples.

Finally, your conclusion paragraph should embrace no more than three sentences, in which you restate your thesis statement and summarise your essay and supporting evidence.

3. Other Hints for Your Essay Type Exam

Other than knowing the general principals of essay writing during the essay type exams, you also need to know some tricks in order to stay focused on the essay during the whole exam. Here they are:

• Keep track of time! Allow a set time period for each question, but keep in mind that a question worth 50% of the grade should probably take 50% of the allotted time;
• Take all the time you are allotted! Do not walk out of the exam room if you still have time on your hands. Instead, reread, rethink your answers. Use every advantage you are given!
• Don’t pad your answer with irrelevancies and repetitions just to fill up space. Within the time available, write comprehensive and specific answers.
• Ft is also advised to double-space. This way you will leave room for additions, and strike through errors or changes with one straight line
• Remember to keep things as clean as possible, for you never know what will earn you partial credit.

You may be sure that with these tips in mind you will know how to write an essay that: 1) demonstrates your knowledge of the subject; 2) has a theme clearly stated in the beginning; 3) recognises the central issue of the question; 4) has specific examples; 5) is not vague.  Moreover, these tips will help you turn scaring essay exams into stress-free and enjoyable process.

Technical Writing image by Nickobec

Are you nearing the end of your degree but don’t know what type of writing career to pursue?  There are many demands for you talents – journalism, copywriting, magazine article writer, fiction book author.  But if you have a technical mind and enjoy the sciences, why not consider a career as a technical writer?

So what is a technical writer?   Technical writing is the use of basic technical knowledge of a product or service and understanding of the terminology and language associated with that particular industry utilized to provide documentation on all aspects of the product or service.

Usually, it is grouped into the marketing department of a company, since it is involved in much of the literature provided to both consumers and professionals who install, setup, and maintain whatever product is in question. However, other areas of marketing are geared toward promoting a product for sale, while the technical writing department is focused on factual information only, providing information on the inner workings of the device, as well as troubleshooting material.

Technical writing can involve producing white papers, installation instructions, troubleshooting guides, wiring information, and other detailed documents involving the functionality and usage of a particular product. While it is not usually necessary for a technical writer to be familiar with every aspect of a product or device in order to prepare such documentation, technical writing requires that you be able to decipher and make use of the terms that arise in the application of the product or service on a daily basis within that industry. This means having a concept of the entire industry in which the product is marketed.

For example, if you are a technical writer in the telecom industry, you should be familiar with the usage of terms like “switch” and “server” in relation to the products provided by the company you work for, as well as maintain comprehension of several acronyms that you would use on a daily basis in your technical writing, including abbreviations like CDMA and NTSC. Technical writing is a great field to enter, if you have any kind of intimate knowledge of technical and technological industries

Tip 1: sound pleasant and conversation like.
If one talks down to their audience and scares them into buying their pitch, the audience will surely be quite turned off. A positive tone is essential to a good persuasive essay.

Tip 2: the essay needs to be backed up by sources proving your point. It is a good idea to say “according to this book or website” to prove a valid point. Without proper sources, your audience may not think you are a credible writer.

Tip 3: pitch the idea to your audience, also known as a “sales pitch”.
The reference to “sales” is to get your point across so your audience would buy your product if you were selling it, metaphorically speaking.

Tip 4: compare it to something else. To be thoroughly persuasive, you may want to compare your idea with another for contrast.
You now should know how to write a persuasive essay.

Conclusion:

Your conclusion is vitally important as it is the ending to your essay and leaves your audience with a summing up of everything you just talked about.

Tip 1: sum up the main points of what you talked about in your essay.

Tip 2: a sentence or two restating why they should do what you want them to do.

Tip 3: make the tone of your conclusion clear and concise, like the rest of your essay.

Tip 4: End the conclusion (as well as your entire paper) with a good, punchy line to wrap it all up.
You also should include a tagline (a sentence of uniqueness), which will help the audience remember your essay. A call of action statement also is appropriate in a conclusion as it gives a justification for everything you are talking about.

Body:

When learning how to write an essay knowing how to write the body is very important. The body of the essay is the bulk of the essay and should be the most detailed.

Tip 1: make each point consistent. All paragraphs in the body should have a clear tone and be equally backed up by sources.

Tip 2: be certain to highlight all points you want to be clear on, which should be almost everything. Any details worth mentioning should be emphasized in great depth.

Tip 3: sources and quotations should be used properly. However, only quote a small part of the content and paraphrase the rest.

Tip 4: Make each paragraph well-thought out to master how to write a persuasive essay. Each paragraph should be the same amount of content as the others in the essay. Edit out unnecessary information if need be.

Globalization image by Steve Cadman

Today’s sample essay comes from Lloyd Johns is on globalization.  This is certainly a current social topic, especially in the field of finance.  For recent evidence of this, you only have to look as far as the credit crunch.  What started as families in the US over extending themselves to buy a house ended up in a worldwide recession.  Everything fell countless small banks (and a few large ones) in the US through to almost the country of Iceland going bankrupt.

_________

Every day we hear it on the news, read it in the papers, overhear people talking about it and in every single instance the word globalization seems to have a different meaning. So, what is globalization?

At political and economic level, globalization is the process of denationalization of markets, politics and legal systems, it is the rise of global economy. Many international organizations, governmental institutions and the whole academic world discuss the consequences of this political and economic restructuring on local economies, human welfare and environment. It is one of the most important features of present world.

At a business level, the process of globalization is when companies decide to take part in the emerging global economy and establish themselves in foreign markets. They adapt their products or services to the linguistic and cultural requirements of different nations. Then, they might take advantage of the Internet revolution and establish a virtual presence on the international marketplace. More and more companies do their business online. E-commerce has changed traditional business practices by providing direct international access to information and products.

Some scientists agree that globalization has also cultural and ecological connotations, and that it is not only political or economic phenomenon. It means that countries all over the world become interdependent in many possible ways. There is probably no area of human activities left that is not affected by globalization. We listen to the same music, eat the same food, wear the same clothes, and decide ecological and war and peace issues together.

But I think that the core sense of globalization is economic. In recent years more and more economic activity in the world seems to be taking place between people who live in different countries (rather than in the same country). It takes different forms, like international trade, growth of import and export, foreign investments, foreign loans and bonds, and many others. Economic globalization has different consequences on businesses all over the world and influences almost every other sphere of human life. Globalization has potential benefits on the one hand, and costs or risks on the other. Globalization increases economic development and reduces poverty. More essays on globalisation. Globalization makes us vulnerable to changes all over the world. For example the huge market or foreign goods in the United States creates jobs overseas and keeps foreign workers employed. Similarly, the health of the U.S. economy depends on how well American products sell in foreign countries.

Seven of the world’s leading industrial nations meet annually at a “Group of Seven” summit to coordinate policies for worldwide economic issues.

Each one of us is now more fully involved in a global economic system than were our parents or grandparents. There are probably no industries left that have much “natural protection” from international competition. Globalization in its core sense is the expansion of cross-border economic ties. Geographical distance does not matter any more.

Persuasion by EdYourDon

What is persuasion?  Dictionary.com describes the verb ‘persuade’ as to induce to believe by appealing to reason or understanding; convince.  Put simply, persuasion is convincing another person of your conclusions.  You want to agree with you, even champion your cause.

“Rhetoric is the art of discovering, in a particular case, the available means of persuasion.”
–Aristotle

Every single human requires the art of persuasion at some point in their lives. As a child, one might use persuasion for the attainment of a toy or as an adult for the acquiring of other objects. A person here might whine, throw tantrums, but this behavior never seems to attain what is wanted by the person and just makes things worst.

What one needs here is persuasion as it is the only method that can be pursued by one to achieve what he wants. According to definition, “Persuasion is a form of influence. It is the process of guiding people toward the adoption of an idea, attitude, or action by rational and symbolic (though not only logical) means. It is a problem-solving strategy and relies on “appeals” rather than force”.

Techniques

It is to be noted here that when writing an essay, a person needs to use persuasion so as to make people conform to the ideas that he or she presents in his essay. To write a persuasive essay, first of all the writer needs to have an argument. The argument has to be one-sided and the other side of the argument or the opposite answer is disregarded, but another fact is that a persuasive essay is never related to the pros and cons of the topic, but general facts related to its factuality. According to sources, “It can’t be a fact. If you were to choose as your topic, “Vipers are dangerous,” you wouldn’t have to persuade anyone of that. However, if your topic was, “Vipers should be eliminated from the animal kingdom,” then you would have presented an opinion that could be debated. Your persuasive essay will focus on only one side–your chosen side–of the argument. This will not be a pros-and-cons essay. Also, it won’t be a personal opinion essay. You must be prepared to back up your logic with evidence collected in research that supports your position”.

Persuasion requires technique.  No one would believe anything said by another until and unless he or she is persuaded into believing it. Persuasion can be done by certain methods.

Evidence

First of all evidence is required so as to support the claim made by the writer in the essay. The evidence cannot be general statements but have to be valid with good sources. Apart from evidence, persuasion needs to be sequential with one fact of the topic leading to the other for the betterment of the reader, as this would help him or her in understanding the topic as well as the claim. For example, if one is writing an essay on the above mentioned statement that is, “Vipers should be eliminated from the animal kingdom,” the writer needs to begin by the dangers posed by the vipers and then move on to numerical data as to how much disaster is caused by them and then carry this argument forward.

Introduction of Controversial Issues

In the essay, the writer should also bring forth a general introduction to the issues that are against the topic at hand. This would lead to a negation of the controversial topic and would help the reader into conforming with the arguments as well as to understand the whole topic.

Conclusion

In the light of the above-mentioned statements, we can hereby conclude that persuasion is an art that is used by everyone at some point in their lives. It is necessary to note that persuasion plays a major role in an essay, which is related to a certain debatable argument. Persuasion requires some techniques, which have been mentioned above.
