I only wanted to say that posting to blogs is likely to be equivalent to rewriting in academy for me.<br /><br />I know they are quite different.I have learnt a part of academic writing in callage at your class. So I know it's deffent from our posting to blogs.<br /><br />I'm sorry again to say such a thing.<br /><br />SadamuSadamuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04619551222931818348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37860137.post-63800415271830954722010-12-07T11:15:39.701-08:002010-12-07T11:15:39.701-08:00NO NO NO NO!!!!

POSTING TO BLOGS IS NOT "EQUIVALENT" TO COLLEGE REWRITING. <br /><br />Yes, I know I am shouting, but that is because I am really upset about this.<br /><br />BLOGGING = INFORMAL WRITING<br /><br />COLLEGE STUDENTS REVISING WRITING ASSIGNMENTS = FORMAL ACADEMIC WRITING<br /><br />THAT IS *NOT* MY PURPOSE HERE. I want everyone to write more. If you are too self conscious about sharing your writing, then most of you won't write enough. <br /><br />Writing in a private journal is a good idea and you always want to check writing before posting, emailing or publishing. HOWEVER, worrying too much about mistakes and revising before posting makes writers too self conscious and often blocks writing. <br /><br />ABOUT REVISION: most writers, even the most experienced, need feedback from readers before they re-write<br /> <br />Also, THIS IS NOT A PUBLIC BLOG. I did that on purpose, so you would all feel more comfortable about sharing writing.<br /><br />I hope this is not why so few of you have posted your introductions.<br /><br />A FINAL NOTE: this is NOT "my" article. Please note that I opened with a few comments of my own and then reposted excerpts from another blog. Obviously, I need work on formatting so that it's easier to tell the difference. <br /><br />And maybe it's time for me write about re-writing, editing, copy-editing, proofreading ~ and the differences between them.Vanessa Vailehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04647639725252430851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37860137.post-73196264748559264252010-12-07T06:43:23.204-08:002010-12-07T06:43:23.204-08:00Vanessa
I quite agree with your article.
I think ...Vanessa<br />I quite agree with your article. <br />I think that I have to write at first and rewriting comes next.<br /><br />I now write my journal everyday and it becomes my hobby. No one looks my journal, so I can write it almost freely.I mean I don't care grammer,spelling,etc. <br /><br />However when we post anything to blogs, we have to care many things.So I believe posting to my blog is my writing exercise.<br /><br />It's my opinion that my posting to blogs is equivelant to rewriting of collage students.<br /><br />SadamuSadamuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04619551222931818348noreply@blogger.com
