And, while it would be wonderful and humbling to have Dante sign up for the Masters in Writing, we are aware that writing of that level and focus is rare. Exceptionally rare. Some modules also carry examination. Essays and examination materials will be assessed using the same criteria as those outlined in your student handbook.
Assessment of creative writing portfolios is related to the overall Aims and Objectives of the module and learning outcomes. Creative writing has traditionally been seen as individual and subjective. Rather than going inside any shops in particular me and my dad were fascinated in the airport structure itself and to the extent it had been made too look modern. I was absolutely fascinated to see actual palm trees inside the building. It was nearly early afternoon and I smarted my self up before I entered the shop and walked up to the counter.
I had my lottery numbers and I passed it to the cashier and she grabbed the ticket right from the corner as though it had a disease on it. Outside it was silent, desolate, and bleak. Was it all over? Had I died and didn't even know about it? Death wouldn't be that easy for any of us.
That night, rats woke us up in our trench scurrying in groups among us. We lived in absolute squalor. This essay has been marked by a teacher! Sign up to view the whole essay and download a PDF with full teacher's notes. Don't have an account yet? Create one now!

Creative writing. Extracts from this document Middle I sat on the bench overlooking the playing fields and remembered playing football here. English spelling can be fiendishly difficult. There are marks for these, but not that many. The examiner wants to enjoy reading your piece of writing and is waiting to be engaged by it. Relax and enjoy the process! Author Information. Writing a creative writing essay is a daunting task at best, but can be positively terrifying when having to be completed within very strict time limits.
However, the good news is - writing creative essays is easy! Now, one huge advantage of these open-ended questions is that they allow you to have the prerogative to take the answer where you want it to go; there is no way for them to catch you out for not knowing any information.
The broad question or image should not be restrictive: for instance, in a description you do not have to stick exactly to describing what you see; using poetic licence to imagine what might be there is strongly encouraged. A general piece of advice that I give to my students is to plan the structure of your answer. Of course, you do not need to plan out all your similes and metaphors, but setting yourself out a basic structure of what to say in each paragraph will help it to read more clearly.
A key way to make it clear to the examiner that you know what you are doing is through consistency. Ensure that you have the same tone throughout your creative piece, and that your narrative style and tense remains the same. This way, you can show to the examiner that your narrative choices have been deliberate, and based on the purpose and audience of the brief you have been given. Each GCSE syllabus has a different way of assessing for the creative writing element.
Find your exam board below for some tips on how to tackle the specific exam questions you will be presented with. For the AQA creative writing section in particular, you will be asked to write either a description based on an image, or a short story. For the image description, as well as having a good standard of language, your marks will lie within your ability to use a wide range of language techniques: think metaphors, similes, sensory language, imagery, alliteration etc.
A description of this kind requires you to be very imaginative.
