This course is designed to refresh or polish academic writing skills in English. It is the opportunity for those actively involved in writing academic papers to take a step back and look at what is involved in the process. Whereas Part 1 in the winter semester focussed on a top down approach to writing, Part 2 will focus more on the sentence level of writing. You do not need to have taken Part 1 to be able to enrol in Part 2.Part 2 will cover:- Sentence structure- Sentence length- Academic style in terms of verb tense, vocabulary choice- Commenting on diagrammatic information- Making generalisations and qualifications- Language of cause and effect- Language of comparison and contrast- Paraphrasing and summarising- Punctuation
