Revision

For the revision of The Wedding, I used the rubic and the instructor’s critiques. I changed the opening into an attention getter suggested by the instructor. I also chose the perspective of the main character to add more depth to the poem. I took the dramatic tension and gave more life to that so I could tie it into the character’s perspective. I changed the ending to make it more effective for this poem using the thirteen ways of looking at revision. For the revision of The Bra, I used

technique, and revision process. Through complicated steps, I performed both global and local revisions in order to increase the clarity of paper, erase all sentence-level confusions, perfect my ideas, and organize my thoughts into a coherent, unified argument. First and foremost, I performed the global revisions. Global revision includes revising clarity, organization, content, and the unity of paragraphs including the transitions. In my paper, i performed a global revision in the way of paragraph

A Study on Revision In The Writing Process Typically, when most people think about the writing process they think of terms such as a ‘thesis statement,’ developing an outline, body paragraphs, conclusion; it’s imperative to view writing this way. We have only been taught THIS way of writing almost directly after we learned how to spell words—you decide what to write about, usually specified in the thesis statement, then you write a series of paragraphs entailing how you came to this conclusion. Finally

American writing. They can be used to compare and analyze numerous things like expressions, objects, activities, and how we think. In the book, Tuning, Tying and Training Texts: Metaphors for Revision, Barbara Tomlinson, the author, discusses her viewpoints on metaphors and how they relate to the process of revision. She talks about how we come to adopt our writing process which is through, “…metacognitive expressions and culturally shared information” (Tomlinson 59). Metacognitive expressions are thought

Through this course, I have learned the importance of using peer review and revisions, bettering the transitions between ideas and paragraphs, staying consistent with my topic, and many other issues that would may my writing better. One of the most pressured lessons I have learned in the course was the important of revising my papers and getting other people to look over my writing. In high school, most revision was mostly looking for errors, such as wrong words, punctuation, and grammar. For

(HCP) and Advocacy Project (AP), I have pushed myself to improve my writing skill. Although I have learned a lot throughout this quarters here at UCI, I want to emphasize three main areas that I have made great strides in: research, drafting, and revision. Research I came into Writing 39C with some formal lessons on how to research, mainly from high school. However, since I was taught those lessons years ago, I came into Writing 39C with a clear head. My primary research focus throughout the

There I heard it; the final whistle blew for full time. We worked so hard all season long only to collapse in the final few minutes. The Massachusetts State Cup was so close. We were so close to winning the title, and we blew it. Our team took this adversity and used it as motivation to work even harder for next semester. Every practice following that loss was pure intense work. It ended up paying out for us in the end, with the following season resulting in regaining the premier title of being state

Revision Every paper, no matter how well written needs to be revised and edited as time goes on. In some ways, life is similar. We all go through changes that influence us and shape the direction we are headed. Some of these changes come from our own prerogative while others are inspired by friends and family members. I know that my worldview has gone through this revision process. Even looking back to freshman year I had many of the same ideals, same focuses on values and hard work, but over time

metaphors I use in everyday life to describe everything, and I use the metaphors more than I thought. Barbara Tomlinson backs Lakoff and Johnson’s statement up by presenting readers, in her article, Tuning, Tying, and Training Texts: Metaphors for Revision, with a select variety of metaphors many different writers use when

There are various ways to find out if a survey question needs revision, such as identifying grammar and concept errors in the question using specific techniques, or conducting in-depth interviews to find out if survey respondents have any issues in answering the survey questions.
