Creative writing can be very daunting, especially for students who aren\u2019t confident in their writing abilities. Many students believe they just aren\u2019t creative. This can be a problem when they are asked to write creatively, especially under timed exam conditions. These situations can become even more stressful when they are writing in response to something they haven’t seen before.\u00a0 In turn, students can have the tendency to disengage and become unmotivated to write, which is not good!<\/span><\/p>\n

However, linear stories (where events take place in chronological order) are often very predictable and fail to entice the reader to keep reading. <\/span><\/p>\n

Structure is key<\/h2>\n

By altering the structure of a response, writing can be improved greatly.<\/span><\/p>\n

A few ways to do this more effectively include: <\/span><\/p>\n
