In a typical session the teacher might take 2 or 3 of these suggestions, introduce them one at a time and then give learners the opportunity to apply them to their own writing where it will lead to an improvement. Characterisation - in a similar way learners are introduced to ways to enhance characterisation. They are then asked to apply some of these to a key character in their writing to make that person more fully rounded, credible and interesting. After every two sessions students should be placed in peer groups so that they can critique each other's writing to see how well the stylistic suggestions , structural changes, and suggestions for improving characterisation have been incorporated in their writing. Prior to writing their final draft, students should return to the assessment schedule and use this to decide what changes or additions are needed for the final draft.
Students then begin writing the final draft.
For writing to be published on Writers' Window , it will need to be word processed at this stage. Students then form peer editing groups to proofread each other's work for technical accuracy. At this point they will need access to dictionaries, spell checkers, language guides . Students do a final proof-read of their own writing. Students then write their final copy.
