My reflections of the essay writing module.
Firstly the module lets the user understand how to approach the topic given then to collate the information provided, to develop your argument and incorporate your research into the final written essay.
It is very helpful in that the module has little exercises that you would click on words and immediately you are given answers to what words mean.
It suggests you look closely at your essay topic and the information your tutor has provided. Then ask your self some questions like: what does the essay question require you to do, what information do you have to look at, and what are you writing about?
To do this you need to identify three types of words - Instruction words - Content words - Relationship words.

Instruction words are the action words in the topic and tell you what to do.
Some examples are: analyse, describe, discuss, justify, compare.
Content words are typically nouns and verbs that represent the key concepts of essay Relationship words connect different aspects of the topic.
Some common relationship words are: in the light of, with reference to, drawing on, assess in terms of, according to, and influenced by।
This module is very good, it is simple, and it has easy to follow instructions with one click arrows and anwers.
