Writing and communication are important skills which must be learned. In our school students taqke a class in report and resume writing. Also during some of the teaching modules they must fill out report sheets and write a brief report on thier findings.
A basic tool for communication is to be able to express our thoughts in a written form. knowing this format enables us to express these thoughts which are so beneficial in today's world as it relates to a bastardized form of writing as in texting that is so prevalent today. This is a skill set ,(writing properly) not only benefits the one who writes but also benefits the one who receives the written information. This form of pure expression is so missed today.
The ability to communicate your thoughts, both written and oral, are highly important as a manager.
Writting is a very important tool to master in one's education.
Everyday we see more and more students unable to write properly at college level.
This is a big problem that must be address by us and we have to make sure that student get this abbility.
I have found that students enjoy revisions when they have guidance and encouragement and understand rewrites are helpful to gaining skills that will help them in all of their classes.
I have witnessed more and more students having diffuculties structuring papers and placing thoughts succinctly and professionally on paper. I like how this portion of the module emphasized the importance of continuous feedback without overwhelming the student as writing is a life long learning skill.
