Proofing Techniques
Akopọ
You have typed the whole document, the spell checker is quiet, and you are ready to print. This is exactly the moment most marks are lost. Proofing is the disciplined final stage where you hunt for the errors the software cannot see: a number copied the wrong way round, a paragraph stranded at the top of a page, a heading separated from the text it introduces, a table split across two columns. Good proofing is what makes work look finished rather than nearly finished.
In this lesson you will learn the difference between three terms that students often confuse: proofreading, verification and validation. You will practise spotting transposed numbers, inconsistent case and uneven spacing, and you will learn to remove widows and orphans, blank pages and split lists. By the end you will check a document the way an examiner does, line by line, looking for the small faults that quietly cost marks.
