A Process And The Best Performance On How To Mow A Lawn

For your first formal essay assignment, you will be writing a process essay. Before you begin, be sure to review the Module Notes on essay format and the pages from the Excelsior College OWL on process writing beginning at:

• Excelsior College Online Writing Lab. (n.d.). Process (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. Retrieved from http://owl(dot)excelsior(dot)edu/posts/view/256

You are facing a particular scenario as a writer. You have a new colleague who is having trouble following a particular procedure in your workplace. Your supervisor asks you to write a process essay that would help this new employee and could be used in the future for other new employees. Your supervisor would like to make your essay a part of the “welcome” manual at your job.



For the assignment, you may choose the procedure. Your task is to write a clear essay that flows well and describes the procedure or process in a way that would make sense to someone new. It is important to keep your audience in mind as you write, since you may know the procedure well, but your audience does not.

Compose your work in a .doc or .docx file type using a word processor (such as Microsoft Word, etc.) and save it frequently to your computer.

You may resubmit your assignment through this dropbox as many times as you need to check to see if you have made improvements, until the due date of the assignment.
