How to become an author?
When developing courses, content goes through certain stages: work with the author and methodologists, editors, designers. Below we have collected the main recommendations and approaches that we use for writing text content
How our recommendations can help:
Structuring your knowledge
Identify blocks of meaning in a text
Determine the level of complexity of the material depending on the target audience
Explain complicated things in simple language
Formatting, editing, and proofreading text
List of recommendations
- Use our checklist
- The lesson is divided into meaningful blocks with subheadings
- The subtitles are worded to reflect the subthemes of the lesson
- The rule “One paragraph is one thought” is followed
- The topic of the lesson is revealed consistently:
“From the familiar to the unfamiliar”
“From simple to complex”
“From the general to the particular”
- The introduction explains how the lesson is structured, what topics are covered, and why these topics are important
- The conclusion summarizes and lists the key points
- Paragraph and sentence structure
No monotonous passages with the same length of sentences
No paragraphs with hidden convoluted thoughts (“worth mentioning”, “take note”)
No sentences with hidden action (verbal nouns)
No sentences with a hidden subject (passive, modal, and reflexive verbs)
