Revised Exam Essays

The article was “From tripod to Comes: A new metaphor for the language arts”, which had published in English Journal and was written by Baines, L. A.
Those years, some projects of writing have changed their focus on writing instructions from finished products to the processes of planning, composing, revising, and publishing. By doing this students can have the chance to meet different readers. Sometimes when students wrote articles they would forget that they have to satisfy different readers. Even though not all people would accept your ideas, students still have to do their best to convey what they want to tell their readers.
Teachers also can let students to write some different aims for different students. Those students would understand what they focus on.
Most advocates of writing would seem this as an individual conference and students can share what they have found in the classroom to their classmates. Through discussing, students can get other people’s ideas, and they can know that how to modify their own articles. Maybe students also can get inspirations through brainstorming. And because many students didn't read many literary forms, then teachers would like to show their materials in many different ways to help students better understand. By reading more and extensively, students can get what they have to get.
And we can not deny that the computers have become one of our teaching materials. Most newly teachers would teach their students with the help of the computers and students can also do writings in the computers. The teachers of composition may provide environment and media such as film, television, Internet, and CD-ROM. By the way, teachers also have to guide students how to use computers in the right way. And teach them how to use those resources. Because not all the resources in the computer are suitable for students, then teachers have to help them strain.
I think I agree some of the topics in this article. When we write articles we have to know what we want to tell our readers, and how to make our articles in organizations. We also need to know how to support our ideas, using some convincing evidence. During our process of writing, we have to know how to progress our articles gradually. And we can not only write, sometimes we can make some different forms to present our compositions. For example, we can try to write some poems or the life experience that we want to share with our readers. Very free, and we do not have to care much.
As Baines said, Computers do already become one of our important resources of learning. We do a lot of learning by computers. But we also have to have instructors to teach us, because there are so many resources in the Internet, not only excellent ones but some bad information. We have to learn how to choose those materials we can get. That’s why we need instructors, because not every student can differentiate what they have got from computers.
In my opinions, computers do help me during the journey of my English learning. For example I would use the Internet to listen to the English radios, such as Advanced and ICRT. As a student in English department, we always have to collect materials for my homework. And now I can not only go to the library but also search by the Internet. It is more convenient now.
