Academic writing: Part one

I’ve spent many years developing my own academic writing and using that experience to help students do the same, so this video series is for sharing some of that experience and advice.

I’ve often found people may well understand a topic in detail but they’re unable to get their message across well in a written format. If that sounds like you, this video will help.

In this video, I set up some key ideas to help you get started with academic writing. This involves a discussion of structure, which can be applied to loads of different forms of writing, the building blocks that create that structure and what I call ‘post-planning’.

This series of videos build on each other, so try to watch them in order. I also suggest taking notes about the key ideas so you can revisit them once you have some academic writing to work with.
