Article 1: 1st Draft

I have now finished writing the first draft of my article on the recent rise in university tuition fees. I found it particularly hard to write this article, as the subject was developing at the time of writing the article, so I always had to keep updating the article on the most recent events. I decided that it would be best to write single paragraphs at a time. This way, I could write about the all the events that happened to do with the rise in university tuition fees. Once it was over, I put all of the paragraphs together to form the first draft of the article.


Once this was together, I read the article back to myself, to analyse it, as I knew it would need a bit of altering, as it was not written in one piece.


When I got my first draft back, after being looked at and checked over, the general comment was that the article needed to be more gutsy and more bold. Furthermore, it was suggested that I should write another article on the rise in university tuition fees. However, this article would be written from an alternative perspective (in the style of journalist, Christopher Hitchens). This article should be written from the view that university tuition fees should be implemented.
