Prepare: As you prepare to write your first discussion for this week, take a few moments to:
Reflect: Take time to reflect on writing as a process-how ideas develop through the use of language, and the changing of that language. Reflect on the differences between revising and editing as described in the textbook.
Write: In your initial post for this discussion. Discuss the key differences between revising and editing.
Provide an example of what a writer does when revising, and what a writer does when editing.
Explain how much time you believe a writer should spend on each task and why.
Include a question you have about the content of the assigned reading for the week.
Your initial post must be 200 to 300 words in length and posted by Day 3. Support your claims with examples from the required material(s) and/or other scholarly sources, and properly cite any references as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
