Week 4 - Skill Activity

Try a Resource

You are building on the research you have begun and organizing your ideas to present them in the format you have selected. In this Skill Activity, you will explore the resources available through the Ashford Writing Center and the Ashford University Library to help you refine your work while you learn about the many ways you can be supported in your path to developing strong writing and presentation skills.

These resources have been selected for you to explore because they best align with your objectives for this assignment. Keep in mind that the Ashford Writing Center and Ashford University Library have many additional resources available to you, which you are also encouraged to explore.

Writing specialists are here 24/7, every day of the year, ready to support you!

To prepare for your post, follow these steps:

·         Select a section of your Final Project that you have composed in a draft form. It does not have to be finalized or edited.

·         After examining the resources above, select at least two resources that you will use to help you improve your Final Project.

·         Use the resources you have selected to edit the section of your Final Project you have drafted. Work on your draft using the insight gained from the resources at the Ashford Writing Center or the Ashford University Library.

In an initial post of at least 300 words, explain what elements of your draft you thought needed improvement prior to using the Ashford Writing Center or Ashford University Library supports. As part of your post, address these issues:

·         Identify which resources you chose to examine and explain why you decided to use them.

·         Explain how you used the resources you chose to improve your work.

·         Identify what elements of your work are now stronger after using these resources.

·         Would you use these resources again in future work? Why or why not? What would you tell someone else about your experience?

Guided Response: Review several of your peers’ posts, and respond in posts of at least 150 words to two colleagues who have examined at least one different resource than the ones you chose for your initial post. Based on your colleague’s experiences, would you try the resource they used? Why or why not? Based on your colleague’s experiences, can you recommend a resource that you think will assist them? You are encouraged to post your required replies earlier in the week to promote more meaningful and interactive discourse in this discussion forum. Continue to monitor the discussion forum , and respond with robust dialogue to anyone who replies to your initial post.

Reminder: It is crucial that you continue to work on your Final Project this week. Use this week to review the feedback you have received from your instructor. Seek guidance on any issues that are still unclear to you. Schedule a meeting with a librarian if you are having difficulties with research. Ensure that you are comfortable using any necessary software programs. Remember, your Week 5 Final Project is worth 25% of your course grade, thus you must take adequate time to prepare. If you have questions or concerns, address them during Week 4.
