During which step of the writing process should you identify the purpose, medium, and audience for whom you're writing?

a. prewriting
b.proofreading
c. revising
d. presenting

The last three choice occur essentially after the main aspect of the writing has been done. What does that tell you?

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.

Cris,
How many questions did your teacher give you? Don't you think you should do SOME of them on your own?

The step of the writing process during which you should identify the purpose, medium, and audience for whom you're writing is the prewriting stage. Prewriting is the initial planning phase of the writing process, where you gather and organize your thoughts before starting to write. It is important to consider these elements during this stage as they provide the foundation for your writing and help guide your content, tone, and style.

As for the other choices:

- Proofreading comes after you have completed your writing and involves checking for errors and making corrections.
- Revising is the stage where you review, refine, and improve your initial draft.
- Presenting is the final stage where you share your completed work with your intended audience.

Considering the order of these choices, it is clear that identifying the purpose, medium, and audience occurs during the prewriting stage, which is the early planning phase of writing.
