Cohesive devices are crucial in writing, for they turn separate clauses, sentences, and paragraphs into connected prose, signalling the relationship between ideas, making obvious the thread of meaning the writer is trying to comunicate. these linking devices, however, have been found to be problematic for English language students, perhaps because the methods used to teach them have been misleading. Most composition or writing texts categorize cohesive devices according to function, thus ignoring their semantics and syntactic restrictions, and giving students the erroneous idea that they can be used interchangeably. More effective strategies are suggested for presenting these links, including methods of teaching not only inter and intra-sentence connections, but the linking of larger units of discourse as well.
