This resource was originally created for FE Foundation students at Camberwell to support the planning and visualising of essay writing. It has subsequently been used in the in-studio support sessions on the Drawing BA. Students have used it enthusiastically, commenting that it takes the mystery out of structuring an essay. It has been particularly beneficial for students who have been out of education for some time or for those who have not written to academic conventions before or for a very long time.

These materials have been used to explore with students visual approaches to essay planning. The approach used here is discussed in ‘Easy Essay’ – a DVD exploring staff and student perspectives on essay writing. This is available at www.arts.ac.uk/cetl/visual-directions.
