Computer Assisted Writing using Word Processor

There are many features in Word Processor that can give you benefits throughout your writing. But there are also disadvantages in using Word Processor. Here are some advantages and disadvantages that I found out writing using Word Processor.
There are some added values in using word processor in writing. In view of time saving, it saves a lot of our time. As for me, I am quite familiar with computer so typing using keyboard is not a barrier. Besides, using all the features in it can also save our time. For example, we don’t have cut pictures and glue and we have to wait for it to dry and so on. It is not just that, it will also make our work tidy. We can write proper in term of our hand writing and the task that we do. I mean like I mention earlier, if we paste a picture our work will be quite messy because of the glue and so on. Beside that, all this features are in one processor which you can simply use it without making yourself difficult. There are also lots of facilities in this word processor. For example, word count, you can use it to count how many words are there in your writing. You don’t have to count it one by one, I mean manually. There is also Flesch Kincaid Grade Level which can check our grade level according to the native speaker. We can check our spelling and grammar besides using the thesaurus which you can try and observe how easy you can search and use different word choice. Actually there are many more features, these are few. You’ll know if you explore more.
Despite all the advantages, there must be some disadvantages right? Well I found out some and from our discussion in the tutorial, writing using word processor it’s going to a double work. This is because when we use word processor we still have to use the paper right? We have to print and then submit. It is not just that, we also will lose our identity which we will not show our personality. This is because through our hand writing we can see all these characters. As for some people, when they write they need a pen where when they touch the pen or pencil the ideas on writing something will ‘pop-up’. Beside that, you have forgotten the fundamental of writing. Usually we need to brainstorm first before we write for example, do a mind map or draft. This way our writing will be more well-organized and efficient.
All in all, writing using word processor has its advantages and disadvantages. You just need to know how to use it effectively.
