Summary
Packed full of practical authoritative advice this book reveals what your supervisors are really looking for when they read your essays and assignments, and clearly sets out the skills and techniques you need to improve your written work - and your marks! Pete Greasley is the ideal guide for anyone hoping to develop their writing skills. He takes a student focused approach avoiding complex jargon and systematically highlights a wide range of practical tips for you to try and adapt. These tips are supported by a survey of tutors, which highlights the things that markers are really looking for in students' work, and a survey of students which sets out common problems or mistakes. Topics include: planning, time management and deadlines; reading and researching the literature; writing introductions and conclusions; answering the question; critical analysis and argument; referencing; language, grammar and expression; and avoiding plagiarism. As enjoyable as it is functional, Doing Essays and Assignments sets the essay writing process within a manageable structure that will prove a friend to students and markers alike
