Organization refers to the arrangement of
ideas in a text. You can easily follow good
organization when you create an outline of
your ideas before you start.
 Coherence and
Coherence andCohesion
cohesion refers to the connection of
ideas and connection between sentences and between
paragraphs. As you have read previously, a text is
connected discourse. This means that the ideas you
will write on a topic will not be considered a well-
written text if they do not stick together.
 Appropriate
Language Use
Appropriate language use refers to the acceptable style of
language for a particular form of text. For business
correspondences, for instance, the style must be concise and
formal which is why writers of such texts should not use wordy
phrases and must have a courteous tone to it. For literary pieces,
on the other hand, the language and style may be less formal and
more creative.
 Proper Mechanics
Mechanics refers to the conventions of writing
which includes capitalization. Punctuation,
spelling, numerals, abbreviations, acronyms, and
contractions.
