Planning short written answers

It can often be the smaller chunks of work that make a huge difference to your marks.  Many questions are short written answers of a paragraph or two but it takes a lot of skill to get your points across in a small number of words.

This session looks at the stages you need to think about when planning and writing these answers.  We’ll look at the preparation stage which includes analysing the question. The writing is then in three stages – writing a draft, editing and checking.
