In General Most good writers rewrite, not once but several times. Just because an article or book is in a published form does not mean that the information is correct, accurate, or even well-written. Not all writing represents a new position or a creative response to a problem. Many writers consult colleagues and peers about versions of their work and seek advice on revision. Each discipline has idiosyncrasies and stylistic demands.
Most writing is done for a specific audience.
Most students have something to say. Writing reveals what students have learned in class. Criticism of written work is not a criticism of the writer. A TA can greatly influence the quality of student writing simply by paying close attention to the creation and design of assignments. The following suggestions should help you to make your assignments more effective.
