Module 8 Instructor Guidance

If there were no pronouns, all types of writing would be quite tedious to read. We would soon be frustrated by reading sentences like Bob said that Bob was tired or Christina told the class that Christina received an A. Pronouns help a writer avoid constant repetition. Knowing just how pronouns work is an important aspect of clear and concise writing. 

In this module, we will review common errors that are made in writing with pronouns regarding agreement and their antecedents. We will also learn about how to avoid sexism in writing by using pronouns correctly.
