Some Bad Instructions

This is the post you can add your *bad* instructions to. (Remember that you're only submitting one set of instructions - so you have to choose between submitting some bad instructions or some good ones.)

They can be instructions you've thought of for yourself, or they can be ones you've found somewhere. Remember that they don't need to be too comprehensive - you're going write a whole instruction manual for Task 4, so there's no need to produce one now.

You post by clicking on the Comment link at the bottom of this post, and that will take you to a page where you can find a text box in which to add your instructions.

*REMEMBER TO WRITE YOUR NAME AT THE END OF YOUR INSTRUCTIONS* If you don't, I won't know whose they are.

This part of Task 2 is worth 5 marks in all.

---------

You can also use someone else's instructions posted here to complete the second part of Task 2, which is worth 10 marks.

This time you need to make a judgement about the instructions according to the information contained in the extract from Effective Writing (at the end of your Compendium).

You do this by simply adding another Comment, but this time start your comment like this:

"Comment on (name of original poster)'s Instructions by (your name)"

That way, I know which instructions you're basing your comments on, and also who the person making the comments is.

---------

I will be sending you a private mail with a mark for each part of Task 4 later on in the week.

You'll be doing more instruction-writing for Task 3, which we'll be doing in class on Friday, 21st April. If you manage to get both parts of Task 2 on the blog by Wednesday, 19th April, I'll have the chance to give you feedback before Task 3 needs to be complete.

As always, mail me and ask if there's anything which isn't clear.
