I used to use this site in Junior Year. The only parts of this site I find resourceful are the formatting and styling and the tab "Workplace Writers" that lead to more Purdue Owl resources. This tab provides links to information to those in the workplace and people writing during a job or during a job process. Aside from the references that I find useful, I like how Purdue Owl also gives links and references for grades 7-12, English as a second language, and adult basic education. There is also a tab for parents. This webpage is resourceful for young adults and older.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree, this site is for everyone. What I liked most about this website is the formatting and styling of a paper. I struggle formatting and citing my sources for papers whether it's MLA or APA. I always need a guide to help me and I will definitely go back to this site for reference.
DeleteVery resourceful for both young and adult education.
DeleteThis is one site that has been bookmarked from the beginning.
DeleteI went to look at the one you talking about, it was resourceful. There is a part teach you about different kind of essay genre like fiction, research papers, and poetry. These are the part we did not go over in English 100, but will learn later on. I believe this site can help us in other English level class too.
DeleteThis website is definitely useful for everyone who wants to learn about writing. It offers a plethora of practical information that could also be used in day-to-day life. For example, job search writing is incredibly useful for people seeking employment.
DeleteA tab for parents?. Cool
DeleteYes, I thought the tab for parents was a neat thought. It surely is a variation from most sites that offer similar applications. I also found the ESL and general Adult Basic Education tabs to be rather insightful.
DeleteI have use this site multiple times because I always forget how to cite source.
DeleteI found this site to be very resourceful because it has everything a writer needs to write an effective essay. This site has everything you need to be a successful writer. This site is for everyone. It has information for grades 7-12, for people that English is their second language, parents, and professional writers. The Purdue Writing Lab is a perfect way to test your knowledge in writing and reading comprehension. I will definitely go back to this site because I need guidance in formatting my paper whether it’s APA or MLA. I tend to get confused when I’m formatting and siting my sources but I will definitely go back to this site for future reference.
ReplyDeleteRoger that! The lab is a great way to test your knowledge and level of comprehension for both reading and writing.
DeleteI will also use this site when I need guidance in formatting. I have had other references regarding MLA or APA formatting, and this is the one reference I understand. It surely has everything I need to write a well formatted paper.
DeleteI frequently use this website for information on formatting. Without this website, I would make periodic mistakes in my essays. Luckily, I am able to access this website to check my citations for mistakes.
DeleteActually I really liked the information for grades 7-12, and also ESL part.
DeleteThere were a few resourceful things I found on the website. First, the Sitemap hyperlink to the left. It was like a book on how to write properly and perfectly on any matter of subject. Another the resourceful thing I found was all the links under Research and Citation. It guides you on how to start your research and finish your research with citations effectively. I'm pretty sure I will find more resources if I keep exploring the website. Bur for now, I going to bookmark this website for future reference as I have with the previous websites for future reference because I found them to be resourceful.
ReplyDeleteI found this site to be very resourceful as well. What I liked most about the website was the link under formatting and citation. I struggle formatting and citing my papers and this site will become a big help for me in future papers I write.
DeleteBookmarked! Very helpful for future reference.
DeleteI know. I want to say more but thats how much I enjoyed this site. I enjoyed t far more than the previous sites.
DeleteYou are right Ziggy! This website should be bookmarked! It was like a book on how to write properly and perfectly on any matter of subject.
DeleteI agree that the website is very useful for information about research and citation. I liked how the website provided more than basic information on the different citation methods. The website also offered extra information on the more complex details of citation.
DeleteI bookmarked too. This is my favorite website so far.
DeleteNo way.. I bookmarked the same link! It will surely come in handy.
DeleteI have also bookmarked this site.
DeleteAny time a write a paper I refer to this site.
DeletePeople from around the world can access the site and find information to help with many writing projects. In addition, teachers may use the site for in-class assignments. It also offers ESL for students whose dominant language is not English.
ReplyDeleteI agree, this site is for everyone. This site will not only improve your writing and it will test your knowledge as well. I will definitely go back to this site for future reference.
DeleteTeachers can use this site as a guide in their lessons.
DeleteIt must be better if we use this site with offline writing center at school.
DeleteI didn't see the ESL tabs, but it's very thoughtful of helping someone whose main language is other than English.
DeleteYes, I agree. The site does allow willing teachers/instructors to utilize some of its offered assignments as their own, in-class assignments. Big plus there.
DeleteIt would make sense for teachers to utilize the information on this site to teach their students. There was not one part of this site that was not helpful.
DeleteThis site isn't just for the people in English Classes but for any class you have to write a paper for.
DeleteaThis site was a lot more resourceful then the last one. This one you can work on grammar, foundation, and branched out styles of writing. It also can help people from all ranges of levels of english as well as people that may be trying to obtain a GED. You can do research and it helps in broad range of ways.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree, this site is for everyone. It can help a writer with formatting and citation. All these websites have been really resourceful and helpful.
DeleteThis one is especially resourceful. It has beyond what the other sites have. I hope they never, ever take it down.
DeleteI totally agree with you Sung. This website has more quantity of resources than last one.
DeleteI like this site because it has more resources and is more organized than the rest of the sites we were introduced to.
DeleteThis site was better than the last one. Many teachers tell their students to refer to this site because it is resourceful.
DeleteI found this website to be very resourceful. It is very organized. It very helpful to those who need help in writing or just to familiarize themselves with technique. It is helpful for teacher and students as well.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I feel like using this site regularly will help me familiarize myself with all the writing techniques. Great explanation!
DeleteI liked how the website offers information for not only students, but teachers as well. So, even if students cannot access the website, their teachers can access the website for them and teach the students about writing. To summarize, the website is incredibly useful for all people who want to learn about writing.
DeleteIndeed, the site had a lot to offer to almost everyone, whether you're in need of specific guidance, or simply enhancing your literary skills.
DeleteI think I have finally found a site that I would not mind using. I appreciate how organized this site is. Finding the link to what I need help in is what makes going on these types of sites tedious. This site makes it easier to find what you are looking for faster and I find that extremely helpful.
ReplyDeleteIt is very organized. It helps a student on common issues on essay writing. I find it extremely helplful.
DeleteThis website is like a tree, it spread to different branch and from there spread to another branch. Not like the web website, it is organized in better way.
DeleteI love how it's organized as well. The site being organized makes it easier for visitors to browse around.
DeleteThis is the most resourceful website I have seen. This site is also for the ESL person who is exactly like me. Furthermore, it has the Youtube videos to learn grammar and writing skill easily.
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way you do, because I have been a ESL student for long time. Actually for me, I cannot compare which site is the best. Every site has their own advantage and good side. I like every site we've visit.
DeleteIt's good to see it helps out people with English as their second language.
DeleteThe website contains all the information writers need to excel in their essay-writing skills. The Online Writing Lab guides writers by teaching them how to do a myriad of writing skills. The information I found the most resourceful on this website is the material on research and citation and subject-specific writing. The information on research and citation taught me how to use academic sources and avoid plagiarism. The information on subject-specific taught me the right way to write for every class I will have in the future.
ReplyDeleteOne of the reason l like this site is, it had job search writing. It included how you preparing an application and job search letter. This site is not only for students but also for adult. I believe in the future, I can still use this site.
ReplyDeleteAdditionally, I like how the information from big picture divided to small picture, and smaller picture.
DeleteI like how it doesn't only offer knowledge on grammar but stuff like that too! It guides you on applying to colleges and all that other good stuff on adulthood. It's such a good website.
DeleteI need to look at preparing an application because I'm currently searching for jobs.
DeleteI really liked how it offers teaching ESL. The site is resourceful because it offers everything and anything a person needs to learn on writing grammatically acceptable sentences, paragraphs, then essays in the English language. It also talks about how to write the kinds of essays we've been learning about. It tells about fallacies and things to avoid when writing. It offers visuals, citations, and even advice about college.
ReplyDeleteI can go on and on, but the site just has so much information about writing properly and beyond that anyone looking to learn to properly write in the English language can no way call it non-resourceful.
I agree that this is the most resourceful website

ReplyDeleteI think that this website is more than useful to students completing essays and people who arent students but still need an reference when stuck with anything regarding formatting and essay-writing. Almost all of my high school teachers and middle school teachers have used this website as a reference for us students to use with their essays and I agree with them that it's definitely useful. It's useful because it contains info on writing as small as grammar to anything regarding format, like MLA (Modern Language Associasion) or APA (American Psychological Association, to writing simple things like business letters. I think that this website was and is a great reference for anyone, not just students.
ReplyDeleteThis site seems very useful. It offers a lot of stuff. This website made for a lot of people who have different problems. Or need help in different areas. It's good for writing essay and teaching the basics. It helps to better reading and writing skills because when you practice one you get better at the other.
ReplyDeleteLike most literary websites, the Purdue Owl Engagement website offers a variety of useful tools and links to aid, and to provide additional resources for both the avid writer and the beginner. My only qualm with such sites that links you to other websites, rather than having the information readily available for you on their site, is that it causes a break in concentration as you transition from one site to the next. At least that is how it is with me. Though in-light of all that, the Purdue Owl Engagement website is one of the few literary websites that offer a hands-on approach (or guide if you will) to writing an effective resume. Something that many literary websites neglect, yet remains a lacking application (or skill) for most college students and beyond. So that for me was a very resourceful aspect of the site. And as Casiana had mentioned in her blog, the site also has references to ESL and the general Adult Basic Education courses. Both of which I also found to be very resourceful.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very resourceful site. I have used this site on many occasions. Wither you would like to find resourceful websites to do research or learn how to cite your sources this site is helpful. On this site you learn how to do MLA and APA format. Also this site is useful for a wide range of level of study. I have used this site for all my research papers.
