This workshop is designed to help students develop practical knowledge and strategies on how to write an effective paragraph/essay. It will cover:

(1) some basic methods in finding a topic, gathering data, and writing an outline.

(2) the good organizations of writing different types of paragraphs/essays, such as process, classification, cause/effect, comparison/contrast, and argumentative paragraphs/essays. The location of thesis statement and the use of transition signals in different types of essays will also be introduced.

(3) the rules of writing a (an) paragraph/essay to achieve unity and coherence, such as always discussing only one idea in a paragraph, staying on the topic in your supporting sentences, and using repetition of key nouns, consistent pronouns, transition signals and different kinds of logical orders.

(4) some fundamental principles of paraphrasing and summarizing to avoid plagiarism in academic writing, such as citing the sources appropriately, and using your own words and your sentence structure without changing the meaning of the original.

Model paragraphs and essays will be analyzed and discussed in the workshop. This workshop will be particularly helpful for the students who want to improve their paragraph and essay writing. All are welcome!
