Failure to complete the full assignment will result in loss of grade points. Organization is the internal structure of a piece of writing, the thread of central meaning that ties the piece together from beginning to ending. Begin with perhaps one to two sentences about the general topic. Followed by one to three sentences that describe in detail the purpose of the paper. A piece of solid academic writing: • begins with an introduction regarding the piece’s primary purpose or theme, which prepares the reader for what is to come, (., thesis statement). Students are asked to paraphrase the stated purpose of the assignment including all components in the introduction • ends with a conclusion that summarizes the key points of the piece, draws conclusions, and generally provides closure for the reader. The conclusion is a mirror image of the introduction; there is never new material added to the conclusion. The body of a piece of academic writing can be organized around a variety of structures. Students are not considered experts; therefore, any statements made that have not been previously developed and supported by references is considered unsubstantiated; fails to meet academic writing standards. SO, use references; not many quotes, but be sure that your definitive statements are supported. Examples of organizing structures: • Main Idea/Thesis with Supporting Details/Evidence; internal consistency within the paper—if in the introduction there is (a), (b), & (c), then in the paper each point is to be presented in order in the body of the paper. • Comparison-Contrast; know the difference (APA uses Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary; this can be accessed online) • Critique versus Analyze; know the difference (APA uses Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary; this can be accessed online) • Deductive Logic • Point-by-Point Analysis • Development of Central Theme • Chronology or History (., of an event, process, era) • Strategies versus Action Plan Solid academic writing uses transitional words and phrases to provide logical connections and sequencing. Graduate students are expected to have a greater word use than undergraduates. Practice using new words that ‘mean’ what you might usually say. However, be careful with use of word strings that have little meaning and diminish clarity; APA calls this ‘wordiness’ Examples of transitional words: • Addition: also, again, as well as, besides • Consequence: accordingly, as a result, consequently, for this reason • Generalizing: as a rule, as usual, generally • Illustration: for example, for instance, for one thing • Emphasis: above all, chiefly, with attention to, especially, particularly • Similarity: comparatively, coupled with, correspondingly • Exception: aside from, barring, besides, except, excluding • Restatement: in essence, in other words, namely • Comparison: in contrast, by the same token, conversely, instead, likewise • Summarizing: after all, all in all, briefly, in any case, in any event, in conclusion, in short, in summary, finally MECHANICS Download: Free version of Grammarly Description Guidelines and Examples Solid academic writing is characterized by the proper use of conventions and mechanics and sentence structure, including: spelling, grammar, paragraphing, capitalization, and punctuation. Examples of Conventions and Mechanics in Academic Writing: • Proper Use of Capitalization, Punctuation, Quotation Marks • Subject/Verb Agreement • Proper Use of Pronouns; if you have a question, check your APA guide; if it’s not there, reword the sentence or use the noun. • Technical Abbreviations, Acronyms, and Units of Measurement • Paragraphs that are indented; consisting of three or more sentences • Use of Title Page, Headers: APA 7th edition is expected • Avoiding the Use of: Contractions, Incomplete and Run-on Sentences WORD CHOICE and USAGE In solid academic writing, the use of language is precise, with correct word usage and appropriate word choice. In good descriptive writing, strong word choice clarifies and expands ideas. In persuasive writing, careful word choice moves the reader to a new vision of possibilities; your writing should have the reader say “wow that was terrible”; the writer doesn’t write ‘that was terrible’. Effective word choice depends less on an exceptional vocabulary and more on the skill to use everyday words well. Use a thesaurus for new words with more specific meaning: For example, “pronounce” for “say”, “embarkation” for “start.” In academic writing, “it” is not acceptable. Make sure the reader knows what the subject of each sentence is; clarity is key to effective APA format and Graduate level writing skill
