Abstract:
Academic Writing Step by Step offers a new methodology for teaching academic
writing informed by discourse analysis and genre theory and by recent research
in text analysis. The book draws on accessible articles presenting popular
science topics of current interest to illustrate and practice the processes
involved in developing and writing an academic essay or research paper step by
step. Each unit in Academic Writing Step by Step involves the user in guided
“hands-on” practical analysis of an exemplar text. This analysis forms the
basis for a sequence of learning activities directing students to engage with
the text, moving from analysis (reading for intent) to composition (writing
with intent). In this structured process, students acquire a critical
understanding of the components of research and essay writing to underpin
their own writing. Support for students’ analysis and writing of texts
includes pre-reading, while-reading, and post-reading activities. These
activities are linked to practice in the recognition and use of words in
context, grammar in context, and distinctive features of text types. Each unit
contains many interactive tasks and closes with a substantive writing
assignment reinforcing at least one component of academic writing highlighted
in the unit.
The book is designed as a textbook for academic or research writing courses,
and its step-by-step approach makes it usable by university undergraduates or
senior secondary students, including those for whom English is a second or
foreign language. In addition, its authentic readings and focus on academic
and research writing makes it also suitable for graduate level writing courses
in English-speaking and English as a second or foreign language contexts.
