Importance of Understanding Formatting
It is important to understand the formatting intricacies of any assignment that is handed out to be completed. This is primarily because the formatting that will be adopted for the assignment by the student will depend on the instructions. Due to this, understanding formatting allows the student to be dynamic in their approach to assignments, seeing that it allows them to shift between one formatting style and another, in accordance to the instructions (Gropelli & Sharer, 2013). Understanding formatting also allows the student to be much more prepared for the world of professionalism, seeing that many of the assignment formats they will use in their student life will carry on to their professional life. This allows the student to develop a professional perspective from the onset of their academic life.
