Week 11 Assignment #2

I chose the strategy ------ Writing to learn

Learning can be done with multiple ways, including watching, listening, reading, writing and so on. Among all these ways, writing is the most effective of to enhance people’s memory. Writing can also improve students’ logical capacity by organize their thought.

Writing can be a frequent exercise for students’ daily learning. Students can always write their ideas down in order to remind themselves when necessary. Also, they are able to record new knowledge so that they can go back to refer again. Writing can also be incorporated into other courses such as math and reading. After reading an article, we can ask students to write a journal about what they have learnt from it. Students can also write something to summarize the result.

Here is the article that can support my rationale:
