Expressing ones points of view, ideas and concerns in a professional and organized way are a few ways in which understanding the writing process can assist in proper communication. The writing process consists of three main stages: the drafting stage, the writing stage and the proofreading and editing stage. The last stage is very critical because it influences a reduction in misunderstandings, how your paper is viewed by others, and eliminates grammatical errors.
After writing a paper, we at times neglect the final stage of the process due to a lack of time caused by "last minute" work. It is just as important as developing points for each paragraph, conceptualizing ideas for the paper and even writing the paper. Proofreading and editing eliminates simple grammatical errors that were made during the writing stage giving you a better chance at getting a good grade and getting your points across.
As university students we spend more than half of our day on smart phones using "texting languages" such as LOL for laughing out loud, LMAO for laughing my a** off, DWL for dying with laugh and HMU for hit me up. We use abbreviations like these to prevent spelling out three to four different words which are often times use when writing an important paper or during an exam.
The final stage of the writing process is very important as it reduces misunderstandings, grammatical errors and improves your writing. Time must be spent critiquing your own writing before you let others critique it for you.
