Helps students already familiar with writing a paragraph begin to write a short essay. Students learn the techniques of expository writing -- to persuade, inform, or describe.

Choosing from a menu of topics, students are guided to develop an idea and write their own short essay. Steps to finished essays include pre-writing, outlining, organizing, revising, rewriting, and publishing.

Teachers can monitor their students' progress in the record management system.

Designed for students in grades 7 to adult (ages 12 and up), the software can also be used by English language learners and adult students.
