How to Approach a Writing Assignment

Do research early -  Gathering and absorbing material will help you focus on what you'll be writing, even if you don't get to work on the writing right away. 

Leave a strong paper trail -  Often, your lack of good note-taking doesn't register until you're in the final stages of preparing your project when deadlines loom and retrieving materials. It is difficult. 

Brainstorm, make notes, jot down ideas as they occur, and begin by writing the stuff you do know -  Breaking the process into smaller steps makes it more manageable, and lets you make progress even when you don't have large chunks of time to devote to writing. 

Get feedback -  It's difficult to anticipate the gaps, confusion, and potential misinterpretations that complex writing can generate. You need to have at least one outside reader to help you. 

Allow time for revision and editing -  Once ideas have been drafted, you will usually find that you need to go back and re-read, re-find, re-arrange and re-think what you have said. need to. 

Make the organization apparent -  Use paragraphs, subheadings, and spatial divisions (layout) to indicate clearly changes in subject matter, focus, and depth. 

Write the introduction last -   A good introduction must point forward to what the writing contains. It is a promise to the reader and should be accurate. 

Check for accuracy -  Research-based writing is often complex and it is easy to overlook a mistake made while drafting. Check your sources, and read carefully through your quotations, citations, and documentation.
