Here's more information on your first assigned writing task in Thinking Like a Writer. It builds on the ideas you just created by asking you to reflect on the ways you learned the skills you recorded in your timelines. To put it simply, the first writing task for this course asks you to consider two different types of learning experiences that you’ve had, and then reflect on the connections between those experiences.

Here's the details for your first writing task! What should I do? Write a short essay comparing the two learning processes you've recorded in your timelines. Got a theory about how your own learning works? Write about that in your essay.Your essay can consider what’s significant about the experiences that you chose. Or it could identify compatible elements in the different experiences.
What are the requirements for this essay? There is no page length or word requirement for this assignment - do what seems most natural to you and your schedule. Your audience is your fellow Thinking Like a Writer classmates, so keep them in mind as you write. |
Writing Tip: After you've read through the Writing Task, but before you write your formal essay, complete a Writing Plan for this assignment (the button below will take you there). The questions in the Writing Plan are intended to help you think about and make decisions for writing your rough draft. Completion of these will allow you to create a more focused, well-organized piece of writing that meets the goals of the assignment and responds to the needs of your audience.
