CIM408 - "Research and Writing"

Hello again!

We arrive at the beginning of a new trimester, and a new unit. This tri, "Research and Writing".
As my reader, I feel that you will enjoy this, or at least benefit. Increased writing skills on my part can only make this process better!

In this unit, I will be looking at a variety of writing styles, including descriptive, instructive and referential. I will be doing 5 small "writing assignment" blogs, followed by a big boy mega blog.

For this unit, I am changing up my style a bit. This is influenced by a few factors:

1. My lecturer is not marking my actual blog. I will be posting the work both to here, and to the actual submission area. In the past, I have had the work posted here marked, but not this trimester!
2. Each of my writing assignments is a response to a set of parameters, and prompts. However, they will not be written to immediately follow said instructions. I feel that seeing the task at the top of the page will set a mood for each piece, and I would prefer the works be viewed in isolation.

Thus, with this new tri, I will be posting 2 blogs per week. The first will contain the task, the second; my response to it.

I will label them both clearly, so that if you don't really care about the task, or my response, you can navigate quickly to that which you actually mean to view.

Week 1 will be posted momentarily, enjoy!
