Take a look at a writing assignment you’ve been given for any course. Highlight the key terms in the assignment—those terms that identify the type of writing expected and the topic. Then highlight any language that gives you clues about the purpose, or reason, for writing. Finally, highlight any language that identifies the type(s) of evidence that the assignment calls for. Write brief notes for yourself in the space below. Is it clear from the assignment how you are expected to approach the writing task and what you are expected to produce? If not, what’s missing?
