In this section, I’m highlighting the importance of writing and the importance of writing.  Good writing skills allow you to communicate your message with clarity and ease to a far larger audience 

What Makes Writing So Important? Writing is the primary basis upon which your work, your learning, and your intellect will be judged—in college, in the workplace, and in the community. 

Not only is writing an important academic skill, but it is also an important skill that translates into any career field. Outside of work and academia, writing helps us express ourselves, in other words writing expresses who you are as a person. Writing helps you form questions and ideas.  

Writing every day helps you improve your communication skills, writing helps you remember what you have learned.  Writing encourages a creative flow that can help you use your imagination, explore possibilities, delve into problem-solving, and engage in storytelling. 

This blog post is just about interesting places for tips and learning resources to help improve my own writing, and to help improve my own engagement to think critically about writing formulas that can help improve my essay writing by ticking all the boxes with a writing formula as seen below  taken from this interesting article here: https://aeon.co/essays/writing-essays-by-formula-teaches-students-how-to-not-think .

For a school essay:

Section 1: Introduce the argument

Section 2: Summarise the relevant literature

Section 3: Spell out your research method

Section 4: Present your findings and analyse them

Section 5: Draw conclusions

For college dissertation:

The transition from the college research paper to the doctoral dissertation is not as big a jump as you might think. The Rule of Five lives on in the canonical structure for the dissertation, which by now should look familiar:

Chapter 1: Introduction

Chapter 2: Review of the literature

Chapter 3: Methods

Chapter 4: Analysis/findings

Chapter 5: Conclusion
