Project #1 Questioning a Writing Construct (Proposal)
One of the most difficult constructs I used to struggle with was avoiding the word "things" in writing. Teachers always told me to be more specific when I write, but what bout when I previously mention what I refer to as a "thing?" I feel as if readers would know the idea I would try to get across.
Zach,
ReplyDeleteThis touches on the construct of "Error." Writing clearly with concision, ie avoiding the use of "thing," is widely accepted as necessary. You could take this further and examine if other words, even less vague ones, should be used with caution.
