The library project that consisted of watching and recording the actions and appearances of others was to exercise attention to detail in writing. The activity is useful to writers because detail is often what makes a piece of writing interesting, without it there is little visualization of what the writer is trying to show or explain. If a student didn't comprehensive notes on the appearance of whomever they were watching, it would be difficult to picture what the individual looks like. This can be tested by reading observations to another person and having them try to imagine the scene.
