- Understand what an assignment is asking for in terms of writing;
- Brainstorm ideas for getting started on a new assignment;
- Develop stronger ideas, arguments, claims, and source-use in essay drafts;
- Read drafts in order to locate writing issues and develop strategies for revision;
- Incorporate sources and evidence responsibly and effectively;
