This hands-on book introduces students to the demands of university study in a clear and accessible way and helps them to understand what is expected of them. It helps students to develop the core skills they need to succeed at university and provides guidance on the key forms of academic writing, including essays, reports, reflective assignments, and exam papers.
It shows students how to recognise opinions, positions, and bias in academic texts from a range of genres, develop their own 'voice,' and refer to others' ideas in an appropriate way. It also features authentic examples of academic texts and engaging activities throughout to aid understanding.
Packed with practical guidance and self-study activities, this book will be an essential resource for all students new to university-level study.
