It is an excellent opportunity to upgrade your writing skills and gain a new perspective on any text you aim at creating – in English or German.
The writing center can equip you with the right knowledge and skills to bring your writing skills to a new level. An example of a useful technique you can learn is “Free Writing”.
Free writing is a way to channel your creativity and feel inspired to develop your ideas via the magic of words. This magic comes from the freedom of expression, time efficiency, and cognitive abilities of association. Results can be achieved in under ten minutes.
How does “Free Writing” work?
1)Defining a topic is the first step towards creating a complete piece of writing. This enhances the identification of priorities as well as sets a general direction of the text.
2)Starting to note down your ideas without worrying about organizing them into paragraphs is a catalyst for productivity. Setting a clear logic is not as important as producing as much content as possible.
3)Do not fear getting things wrong. Many students struggle with writing texts, especially if they are based on scientific theory or complex ideologies. Trying to figure out a way to explain a certain idea is much better than not attempting at all.
4)Time yourself and make sure that you write freely for five to ten minutes. This is the optimal period for a student to produce a rough draft on a certain topic.
5)Remember that not the product is important.
6)Enjoy the process.
