Discussion:
Reflecting on Your Writing: Flow and Cohesion
Flow and cohesion are abstract terms that many people, including both Instructors and students, interpret differently. In this week's Assignment, you are to think about flow and cohesion as guiding your reader through your essay. Cohesion binds your paragraphs, linking them together so your reader can understand why one idea comes before the next. Flow is what transitions and guides your reader form one paragraph to the next.
This week's Learning Resources will help you examine your work for flow and cohesion. For this Discussion, you will reflect on your own writing in relation to flow and cohesion. Based on what you have learned from the week's resources, you will share your thoughts and experiences on revising for flow and cohesion. You may also choose to reflect on your practice of responding to feedback.
