  • Lesson One: Academic Style

    Academic writing is a formal style of writing used in universities and scholarly publications. You’ll encounter it in journal articles and books on academic topics, and you’ll be expected to write your essays, research papers, and dissertation in academic style.

    Academic writing follows the same writing process as other types of texts, but it has specific conventions in terms of content, structure and style.


  • Lesson Two: Practices to Avoid Plagiarism

        When you are writing about other people’s ideas it is easy, some argue, to confuse your ideas and theirs. However, this is not acceptable. Whenever you refer to someone else’s ideas or writing you have to credit them by referencing their work. This seems quite clear, but many students say that they are unclear about what does and does not constitute plagiarism.
       The first principle is that your record keeping should be as excellent as your writing will finally be. Apply the same high professional standards in recording references and labelling your notes.
       The second principle is that there is no grey area: if you use someone else’s writing, word-for-word in your own text, then that is plagiarism, whether you reference the writer or not.

  • Lesson Three: Writing an Abstract

    The word abstract comes from the Latin abstractum, which means a condensed form of a longer piece of writing. There are two main types of abstract: the (1) Descriptive and the (2) Informative abstract. The type of abstract you write depends on your discipline area.

  • Lesson Four: Writing the Introduction of a Dissertation

    As Swales and Feak (1994) have argued in terms of the research article, the dissertation Introduction is of strategic importance: its key role is to create a research space for the writer. It is in the Introduction that the writer makes claims for the centrality or significance of the research in question and begins to outline the overall argument of the dissertation. In the fierce academic competition to get papers published in reputable academic journals, the Introduction is extremely important in positioning the writer as having something to say that is worth publishing.
