内容説明
'What a super little book this is. Like Eats, Shoots and Leaves, you pick it up thinking it's going to be dull and very soon you're engrossed... this pocket-sized book will be a boon to anyone writing essays, assignments, reports, research projects, dissertations, and theses' - Sara Bubb, in the Times Educational Supplement
'This is a super book. I particularly like the small size which makes it easy for students to keep a copy close to hand at all times. It is well-paced in bite-size chunks with really useful, practical tips for the modern student. The 'Top Tips' are a terrific idea. It will be helpful to all students, not just those in Education disciplines' - Dr Mary Kellett, The Open University
`This book does exactly what the title suggests; it is a step-by-step guide to enable undergraduate students to produce good quality written work. It can be read as complete text or used as a reference book to address specific issues such as referencing conventions or punctuation issues and it contains a particularly effective chapter on learning from feedback and using constructive criticism.
It is presented in a user-friendly format, with 'handy facts' and 'useful tips' scattered throughout to keep the reader interested. There is a helpful glossary of terms, which is cross-referenced throughout the text, including specific words and also relevant concepts which may need clarification.
This book has something to offer almost every student, whether they are making their first attempt at academic writing or are accomplished writers who simply need the occasional point of reference. I will certainly be recommending it to my undergraduates' - ESCalate

`The Good Writing Guide for Education Students is an easy to understand and helpful guide to improving research and writing skills. The language used throughout the book is simple but effective and does not come across as patronising. The presentation of the book is also very effective as it does not seem too heavy; each section is split into short paragraphs with ?top tips? to break up all the writing, therefore it was a very easy read. Overall the book is very useful and straight to the point, going through exactly what lecturers look for in a good piece of work. I would recommend it to anyone struggling with researching information or with writing essays at degree level' - TechBookReport
'There are strong links to the writer's own experiences and this immediately means you relate to him, and also believe him! The Key Facts and Top Tips throughout each chapter are great. I wish I had read this at the start of my course!' - Catherine Trew, Student Teacher
Whether you are returning to studying after a break, or need help adjusting your writing skills to meet the needs of your Education course, this practical, down-to-earth guide will help you improve your literacy skills.
Aimed specifically at students on Education courses, this book uses examples of students' work to highlight common problems, and provides guidance on how to improve. There are handy lists of 'Dos and Don'ts and lots of examples.
There is practical advice on:
o reading widely
o how to search for reading materials
o carrying out small-scale research projects
o structuring academic writing appropriately
o improving punctuation, spelling grammar and use of language
o presentation skills.
This book is ideal reading for Foundation Degree and PGCE students, and all undergraduates on Education degree courses.
