How can writing be used as a object of study?
Writing has many misconceptions and sometimes are reinforced by educators as well as peers. But through writing, I believe we develop skills that can ultimately benefit us throughout our college career. While people might learn by repeating material or practicing different strategies, I see it easier to apply my knowledge of a topic into a writing. I think writing should be used more as a object of study because it requires the student to interpret readings as what they believe or understand from it, then express their own ideas and opinions, as opposed to being told what the meanings are “supposed” to be and expected to simply repeat what was read in different words.
Writing can be a very useful tool that enables the students to openly express not only their ideas but their beliefs and personal understanding. With this new found knowledge, writing also allows us as students to appreciate the hard work writers or artists put into their pieces. All in all I believe writing can benefit the student greatly in all aspects of a college career, and that’s why I think writing should be used more as a object of study.
