and education. In 1973, the late Ellis Page and colleagues at the University of Connecticut programmed the first successful automated essay scoring engine, "Project Essay Grade (PEG)" (1973). The technology was foretold some six years earlier in a landmark Phi Delta Kappan article entitled, "The Imminence of Grading Essays by Computer" (Page, 1966). At the time the article was provocative and a bit outrageous, though in hindsight, it can only be deemed prophetic. As a former high school English teacher , Page was convinced that students would benefit greatly by having access to technology that would provide quick feedback on their writing. He also realized that the greatest hindrance to having secondary students write more was the requirement that, ultimately, a teacher had to review stacks of papers. While PEG produced impressive results, the technology of the time was too primitive to make it a practical application. Text had to be typed on IBM
UNIT 1 Writing in the Business World Writing gives structure and form to our ideas. In the business world this is done for a purpose: to persuade, recommend, offer advice, give an order, etc. The business text must therefore be easily and quickly read and its message must be understood exactly as intended. If you learn to recognize and avoid the more common errors of information control, grammar and style, you will achieve this aim. You will write more confidently and more correctly if you check everything you write. Pay particular attention to the following: · Appropriate Subject Heading Take care to prepare your reader by introducing the subject appropriately in your subject heading. · Carefully Organized Information If a reader needs to be persuaded or convinced, your information will need careful planning and organizing. · Correct Grammar and Spelling Train yourself to check for major gram

The Essay Writing Manual Brain Storming The process of writing the application essay can be broken into five very basic parts: Brainstorming Selecting the essay topic Writing the essay Revising the essay Coming up with the final draft 1. BRAINSTORMING: Brainstorming is the process of coming up with ideas spontaneously from free flowing writing or talking. To brainstorm, you can simply sit down with a pen and jot down every idea that comes into your head. Another approach is to simply start writing and see where you end up. Record as much information as you can recall, such as schools attended, courses taken, jobs held, research projects undertaken. Work on taking yourself deeper into the introspection process by tackling more specific topics. Here are some questions you might want to consider: What am I like? How do my friends characterize me? What are my personality traits? Have I ever experienced a moment of epiphany? Why is (some color) my favorite color?

opinions, and having their own challenged, there is more of a possibility in a shift in their own beliefs in comparison to just receiving feedback from a single source. Therefore the author believes that this is a valuable feature of blogs to promote critical reflection. (Hanlon, 2009) Fourthly, blogs provide a learning space. Namely, these do not merely establish scaffolding for beginners, nor do they allow students to learn from multiple perspectives or receive support from advanced students. They also create a relatively learner-centered environment that allows students to learn at their own pace (Yang, 2009). However, in my view, if the information that the students are learning is incorrect, then all of the students are being misinformed. Obviously, the spreading of misinformation is self-governed within the community, and it's the responsibility of people adding hyperlinked material to ensure that the material doesn't contain misinformation.
Include an overview line drawing (hand or CAD) but no photographs. The reason is that it is much easier to understand a design by viewing a line drawing than by viewing a photograph because the line drawing is limited to showing only the most important elements. This is why patents only have drawings and no photographs. Detailed Description This section dives down into the details of your design. Use subsections to guide the reader through this section as it will be long and complex. Start the section with a block diagram that shows the major functions or layout of the design, then use subsections to drill down into each block. For example, your design may have mechanical, electronic and software components. After describing this at a top level, use a subsection to describe each in detail. Use additional block diagrams as needed. For example, a section on software would likely
