Writing is not a simple task. It involves a complex process of using and coordinating various cognitive functions. Thus, a lot of students find the task challenging. Writing proficiency is vital for success both inside and outside the classroom. Written expression addresses different purposes. At university, a student is expected to use writing as an aid for learning new information (such as summarising, paraphrasing and note-taking), communicating their understanding and knowledge (such as paragraph/essay answers, and giving short answers to test questions), and expressing themselves with the ability to build strong evidence and critical thinking.
