PART 1- Module 1 Mini Discussion (VAL)- Use of Contractions & First and Second Persons in Formal Writing
The use of contractions and first and second persons in formal writing is not acceptable in most courses, and particularly in this one. Your academic and research papers are considered “formal writing” and should be written in the third person and without contractions.
In about 250 words, discuss your past experiences writing essays and research papers using contractions and the first and second persons, and why you should end this practice in favor of writing research papers and assignments in the third persons only, and free of contractions.
Is there ever a place for contractions, and first and second persons in formal writing?
