1 Week 2 : “ EDITING MECHANISM AND SYSTEM“ Matakuliah: EDITING Tahun: 2006 Versi: 01/01

2 Learning Outcomes You are expexted to be able to use editing system to find and edit the mistakes in a manuscript.

3 Steps in Editing ( EDITING MECHANISM AND SYSTEM) 1.Identify typical errors: First, read the article through. Make notes as you go, but don’t make changes yet—you won’t have a clear picture of what you need to do until you get to the end.

4 Steps in Editing 2. Some things to note: Does the article contain all the required information? Is the organization logical, so that one concept flows smoothly into the next, or does it force the reader to work to connect bits of information? If the organization is solid but the text seems choppy, are transitions between paragraphs adequate?

5 Does the lead draw you into the article? Does it reflect what the article says? Does it highlight the article’s most compelling aspects? If not, is there a better lead elsewhere in the story? (Often the lead is near the end.) Does everything the article says make sense to you? Is the writing active?

6 3.Remember that You are Writing for Others: No matter how familiar others may be with the material, they cannot "get inside" the writer’s head and understand her approach to it unless she expresses herself clearly. Therefore, it is useful to read the paper through once as you keep in mind whether or not the student or teacher or friend who will be reading it will understand what she is saying. That is, have she said exactly what she wanted to say? Steps in Editing

7 4.Check the Paper's Development Are there sufficient details? Is the logic valid?

8 Steps in Editing 5.Check the Paper's Coherence and Unity: Are the major points connected? Are the relationships between them expressed clearly? Do they all relate to the thesis?

9 6.Review your Diction: Remember that others are reading your paper and that even the choice of one word can affect their response to it. Try to anticipate their response, and choose your words accordingly. Steps in Editing

10 Example: Original: The media's exploitation of the Watergate scandal showed how biased it was already. Edited: The media's coverage of the Watergate scandal suggests that perhaps those in the media had already determined Nixon’s guilt.

11 7. Eliminate redundancies, make the writing as concise as possible, and resolve any fact-checking questions.

12 Focus on the details to ensure that: There are no spelling or grammar mistakes. Punctuation and word usage conform to your publication’s editorial style. Facts (such as names and dates) are consistent. Information is properly attributed. There are no remaining clarity problems.
