There are two main characteristics that must be present in writing a text: the
content and the form. It is said that "writing without form is like a human
body without skeleton; writing without content is like a skeleton with no
flesh." (Mt Edgecumbe 2)
According to Dagdag (2010), there are six steps in the writing process. These
are the following: .
3. Writing - with a form in place and the content that would go with it, this
is the stage where these ideas would be expressed in complete sentences
and paragraphs.
4. Revising this is the stage where you polish the order of your ideas and
filter the information needed to get your point across. This is where you
start to look for any mechanical errors and correct them.
5. Editing the stage where you go over your written work and check it for
basic errors such as spelling, punctuation and grammar.
6. Writing the final draft after your work has gone through revisions, you
would now have to write your final draft, which you are ultimately
content with.
These steps comprise the basic writing process. Following each step would
ensure quality output, regardless of your topic and content.
Pre-Writing Strategies
Tiongson (2016) suggests that during this stage, you must keep an open
mind. This stage is for discoveries and free writing. Without the hold of
criticism. Unleash all the possible ideas that could come from A topic
In writing your paper, you must first identify what kind of paper you are
tasked to write. What is it for? Who will benefit from it? What are the
instructions given in writing this paper? Analyzing the instructions carefully
would help in figuring out what your writing is supposed to be.
You must determine the purpose of ng your paper. Narrow down your
choices into specific topics. The reason why you're writing the paper must be
clear to you so that you can also properly identify our target audience.
According to Tiongson (2016), your purpose in writing may be answered by
the following questions:
With a purpose, ask yourself how you plan to achieve this purpose. Would
you need to support your argument evidences? Would you need to
defend your stand's weaknesses?
After setting your mind on a way to achieve your purpose, you must
determine your target Audience or your readers. Think of your reader's
needs. Present your ideas clearly or in the manner in which your readers
would find easiest to understand.
I. Who? - Who are the participants? Who is Affected? are the primary
actors? are the secondary actors?
2. What? - What is the topic? What is the significance of the topic? What is
the basic problem? What are the issues?
3. Where? - Where does the activity take place? Where does the problem or
issue have its source? At what place is the cause or effect of the problem
most visible?
5. Why? Why did the issue or problem arise? Why is it an issue or problem
at all? Why did the issue or problem develop in the way that it did?
