Description and Table of Contents
Description
This accessible guide to writing academically is based on the author's many years of experience helping students to improve their writing and get better marks in assignments. The advice works because it uses real examples of students' work to explain what tutors look for, and shows you how to get there. New to this Third Edition:
- increased coverage of plagiarism (and how to avoid it)
- how to show critical reflection and judgement
- turning useful notes from lectures and readings into powerful written arguments
- updated material on citations and references
- new examples of students' work
- developing an academic 'voice'.
The book is packed with practical advice on how to read widely, search for reading materials, structure your writing and use language effectively. With plenty of dos and don'ts, this is a perfect guide for students studying at all levels.
Dominic Wyse is Professor of Early Years and Primary Education at the Institute of Education, University of London.
