...creating revision timetables, rather than trying to revise all your subjects every week, focus on revising half of the subjects you’re taking in one week and the other half the following week, etc. A revision timetable tells you what you need to revise each day and puts you in control of your revision. Don’t worry if at any point you get behind. By working towards revising all topics by your first exam, you can catch up between exams.

Introduction 3.1 How easy is it to choose a course and apply for the university it using the website? 3.2 Website Template Layout 3.3 Homepage Layout 3.4 Colour Scheme 4.1 Conclusion 4.2 Recommendations 5. References Executive summary Introduction The aim of this report is to critically analyse the architecture of the website www.flinders.ed.au. The information gathered from the analysis will be used to devise solutions to problems with the website. The technique of examination for the website was to thoroughly explore the different pages of the website and grade each area of the website using appropriate criteria. Dave Gehrke (1999) states that” without efficient and user=friendly navigation, the user is likely to get confused, lost or frustrated and leave the site for good”. A resultant survey run by Gehrke (1999) showed that page loading speed and navigational efficiency are the most important things to users. The most important user type that needs to be happy with the website for it to be successful is prospective students as they make a majority of the people visiting the site. Prospective students are more likely to turn into current students if they like the feel of the website. This analyst took on the role of prospective student to test the...

...kin31937_ch.02.qxd 10/23/06 2:06 PM Page 11 THESIS SENTENCE TEMPLATES A thesis sentence is a sentence in the introduction that tells the reader what the topic or argument of the essay is. Experienced writers have little difficulty writing thesis sentences. This is because they have read and written thousands of them. You, the emerging writer, don’t have it so easy. So, you have to accelerate the process. You do this via thesis sentence templates. A thesis sentence template is the basic machinery of a thesis sentence, what makes it work. It is like a car minus the hood, the doors, the engine, the side panels, the wheels, and the air conditioner. On that basic structure, thousands of different cars can be built. From a thesis sentence template, thousands of thesis sentences can be constructed. The introduction for any piece of writing is very important. This is where you establish a relationship with the reader. The introduction will always be read, while the body of the paper might sometimes be glossed over (not carefully read) by graders of standardized tests like the SAT® or TOEFL®. ? HOW THE THESIS SENTENCE TEMPLATES WORK Each type of thesis sentence presented in this section is followed by two or three examples of how very different thesis sentences can be written using the template. Then you will write two or three thesis sentences of your own using the template. If you find the template difficult, just do one sentence on your own. But the more you...

...This assignment requires you to develop your own customized Individual Communication Development Plan (“ICDP”). Although writing instructors, tutors, assignments, and models can help you improve, you simply must take responsibility for your own writing and speaking progress. I will assess, critique, mark up, and grade your papers and presentations, but unless you commit to your own personalized self-development plan, progress will likely be slow at best, particularly given the time pressures while you are in this program. Some of you may already be familiar with the Individual Development Plan (IDP), which is typically a statement of career goals and a plan for how to achieve those goals. See, for example, the Department of Defense’s Individual Development Plan (General Guidelines for Charting your Career Path) at http://www.usuhs.mil/chr/idp.pdf, which is actually my inspiration for Assignment #3. Key to this and other similar approaches is that individuals are empowered to take responsibility for their own self-development. By requiring that you create your own Individual Communication Development Plan, I am encouraging you to manage your own communication development. You should use this Plan to chart your progress throughout the remainder of the program (and beyond). You should frequently revise your ICDP, based on improvement and/or new issues and goals. And you should keep me posted on your development. Here’s another way to think about this plan. Working with...

...focus look very good for this paper, and I can see this will be a strong research paper. However, right now your thesis statement is the weak link in your preparation for it. Your thesis states one fact, which is fairly easy to substantiate. It's not an arguable proposition that needs a research paper to back it up. Your thesis statement should encapsulate the whole point of your paper, and every point that you want to make in the paper should relate directly back to the thesis. From my review of your Areas of Focus, it seems to me that your thesis should be summarizing how Apple's newer products saved the company from its previous decline. Please revise your thesis and repost it here, or email the revision to me (or both). Red light until you make the revisions. Please let me know if you need help with this. __________________ Professor Martha Crone cronem@franklin.edu...

...Revising has to do with “looking over” what you have already drafted. It somewhat goes hand-in-hand with proofreading, but in this stage you are searching out parts you may not like as much or parts that wouldn’t fit in with the message you want to convey. Rather than quickly looking over it as you would a text message, revision in the business world involves time and much attention. Not doing so can possibly cause frustration, confusion, and even delays due to the perception of your audience. More importantly, what your message comes out to be could reflect your character, and your way of thinking. It is easier to revise as you write, making it easier to revise later in your writing. You would also want to understand the purpose of your writing and sum up your audience by determining their needs. You’d also want to determine if you would be taking a direct or indirect approach, but you do not want to sound passive. Producing is the more creative part of the writing process. Depending on the medium you choose, a number of things can be done in order to produce or enliven your message. Whether you are formatting or wanting to add visual effects, these tasks would be considered part of the producing step. This involves graphs/tables, captions, fonts, margins, proper spacing, etc. Similar to revising, the main purpose of proofreading is to check for errors such as grammar, spelling, punctuation, missing sources, missing visuals, etc. It’s also good to make sure you’re following...

When reviewing my peers essay I looked for the thesis statement and the main idea. I also looked for fragments and run-on sentences. After the peer review, I learned that everyone writes different and use different methods and words. After my peers read my essay, I learnt that I use “I” a lot in my sentences and I have many fragments in my essay. I think my essay could have been better and I could have had more information in it then I did.

...! We were given multiple readings this semester. There were certain readings that I really liked and could relate to. To be more specific, one of my favorites was Clueless in Academe. There were others that were aimed at helping me but I was too hard headed to practice. Such as the revision, prewriting, and brainstorming excerpts. My least favorite, the one that I think has less benefit is Revision Strategies of Student Writer and Experienced Adult Writers. Both of the reading were aimed for the betterment of my writing, however; Clueless by Gerald Groff is the one that really grabbed my attention and related to me the most. At the beginning of the semester I was still getting the feel of Middle Tennessee State University and how college functioned. The excerpt reading I liked the most and fit me best was From Clueless in Academe by Gerald Groff. He speaks of how cluelessness is a natural stage. Nevertheless, it is a stage you can escape. He recognizes the potential street smarts college students, and students in general utilize these days. I like to think that I am street smart, as is my writing. Sometimes I may not be completely accurate on the subject, but I can still make it sound good—and some teachers do not get that—as Gerald Groff explains in the reading. As the semester has progressed so has my knowledge of writing and how I write. After reading Groff’s piece I feel more at peace with that clueless feeling I get every so often when writing...
