• 30:00 - 30:30 avoid in writing a process essay overview that's the first step in writing process I said what does that mean uh your introduction your introductory paragraph where you introduce the process and you plan to develop it after your attention get or an opening remarks you give give an overview special term special terms are defined like she defined stress for
• 30:30 - 31:00 example I don't know what your topics are going to be um you know you you you explain your special terms describe them you know one of uh one of my students is planning to write on Lacrosse how to play lacrosse but what's that you I don't play lacrosse do I look like I play lacrosse you know and so I I asked her to um describe it a little bit
• 31:00 - 31:30 just a little bit you know give us some idea you know so I can come away with understanding the gang because it'll be over my head you know um I'm sure there are other terms that go with that particular sport that I hope that she will describe or clarify or explain or Define but special terms need to be handled carefully because you're writing to the novice you know you're writing to a person who does not have the level of expertise that you do sequence of steps governed by the plan
• 31:30 - 32:00 of development you know whether you're going to do directional type paper I've shown you mostly informational type and most people tend toward the directional type you know which is okay just a directional can be boring if if you don't have examples you know and details that's number four and the results what do I end up with well after you know going
• 32:00 - 32:30 dealing with stress I should end up relaxed if I follow uh the ideas the tips the advice we need to know what the results are going to be what you end up with I've said that in several different ways avoid omitting steps you know the ones that are absolutely essential you know you're not writing a 50 page B chapter of a book you're writing a five par essay two to four double space
• 32:30 - 33:00 typewritten Pages you know and so therefore you want to pick the most significant steps that the reader needs in order to follow the process even if they're never going to do it themselves reversing steps see order is important writing a process essay don't get the steps out of order you know now the re reader um you wonder how can the reader
• 33:00 - 33:30 know that they don't know the process well they're going to know something you know you can tell when something is sort of reversed you know suspending steps that's a way of not completing the step in other words you talk about it but you don't complete what the reader needs to do it's sort of hanging in midair you know you know you youget to tell the reader um who is fishing um to reel in the fish you know I mean they do it's in
• 33:30 - 34:00 the water the fish is biting now what do I do you didn't tell them suspending step overlooking steps within steps I call these the itty bitty steps that you just do um not even thinking you know but the reader needs to know those steps you know overlooking steps within steps and confusing steps in other words you want to WR clear sentences you don't want to
• 34:00 - 34:30 confuse the reader overview special terms I invite you to take notes um sequence of steps examples results avoid omitting steps reversing steps suspending steps overlooking steps with in steps and confusing steps I already went over this one you know I didn't want to wait I retyped it the fire extinguisher thing
• 34:30 - 35:00 you know so I can move on to the next one different types of process you see different types and this might give you some ideas I don't know natural process on the quiz just on the quiz mechanical process natural mechanical physical and mental there are different types of processes natural anything to do with nature I put birth up there mechanical anything that has to do
• 35:00 - 35:30 with machines you know how they work and I put cognition up there that's a very complex process you know to try to explain to someone who you know all they want to do is just put the key and move um physical process there anything that has to do with the body physical process you know anything that has to do with the body mental
• 35:30 - 36:00 process anything that has to do with the mind now physical I the examples dancing mental an example is writing writing is a mental process you know that's how it begins anyway before it becomes physical now before it becomes physical five functions of the process and again I invite you to take notes I know boring to take notes but I invite you to take
• 36:00 - 36:30 them anyway you know one day you'll thank me probably 20 years from now but anyway um divides into individual steps you know you're going to divide it governed by the plan of development I do want that plan of development in there you know you know you're just labeling each of the major body paragraph of that process analysis don't forget the analysis essay dividing the individual steps explains
• 36:30 - 37:00 the movement that's what you're supposed to be doing explains the movement of the process in five paragraph so you got to focus that's another thing I teach is focus some all over the place writing about everything but the topic interprets the function of each step gives directions no directions are part of it provides information you know so more or less combined the
• 37:00 - 37:30 two you know provides information so devising the individual steps I'm repeating explains the movement of the process uhhuh interprets the function of each step that's interprets you know that's the analysis explain and interprets gives directions as appropriate of course but what makes it most interesting I believe is provides information the
• 37:30 - 38:00 purpose twofold twofold to give information and directions that's the purpose to give information and directions I'm going to deal with the knife the essay by Dr Richard szer which deals with surgery these are my major notes Here which I'm going to watch my time carefully because I'd like to get as far as humanly possible deals

• 39:00 - 39:30 within this process the priest and the doctor are compared in the process they go through to become doctors are priest vows they take vows training Long training they sacrifice a lot more than you can even imagine and fatigue is part of the package he mentions the word womb so we know it's a woman see patient is a woman he mentions the word
• 39:30 - 40:00 ovaries and what he finds cancer in the colon colon cancer and they keep revising when you ought to get the test the colonoscopy you know it used to be well when you're 50 you know but some people need to do so they say now in their 40s and those uh uh uh who have a lot in their family you know have colon cancer in the family they might want to start

• 59:30 - 60:00 filled pages with notes actively read the book actively some people are so passive that's why they don't remember a single thing they've read and there are seven methods I invite you to take notes again but you can get them right out of the the article in the book of the essay in the book underlining I've done all these methods before I knew that was in an article vertical lines at the margins you know vertical
• 60:00 - 60:30 lines when you're standing you're vertical um star star information important stuff or asterisks that's how I read everything numbers in the margin you know you number points you can do that yourself a lot of texts do it for you Circle stuff I did that too even in my notebooks wish I could show it to you I can't because you know you wouldn't be able to see it in this remote
• 60:30 - 61:00 environment be so small writing in the margin you know the space on the page he recommends it or at the top or bottom of the page outline the book you know on a separate piece of paper if you don't want to mark up your books but it's more fun to mark up the book or use a scratch Pad you know to write down notes if you prefer write in what you feel he says
• 61:00 - 61:30 speak to the book oh I skipped a sentence there there is no set speed everyone thinks oh I got to be a speed reader no you don't just give yourself enough time to get through it he was applying this applying this to the classics the great books but you can um apply it to anything in print that you end up reading do not lend it out you know he was telling and that and the simple reason is
• 61:30 - 62:00 because you won't get it back you if it's a good book and then some people forget any who I'm gonna try to do one more thing I'm gonna try then I'll be almost where I want to be campus racism 101 like Nikki say I have a book see the picture Same by Nikki Giovani professor niiki giavon she's still living 1943 to still living distinguished Professor I'm
