Welcome to Academic Writing!
This resource has been designed for Massey University students who are n ew to the conventions of academic writing. Many students, including extramural, internal, and both domesti c and international, may fi nd this book useful, especially as the examples provided are not limited to a specifi c discipline. The book offers advice and guidance on how to write university assignments, including a section on the writing process with particular reference to essays. Another section deals with the basics of report wri ting, incorporating sub-sections on business report writing as well as lab report writing. When writing univ ersity assignments, referencing the work of others is integral, hence there are sections on integrating the opini ons of authors into your assignments, as well as how to construct a Reference List at the end of your assignment. As a student for many years, as well as an academic author of research p ublications, I have designed the book to help new students with their journey into academic writing. Rath er than becoming aware of the features of academic writing through trial and error, as I have done, it is hoped that this resource will fast track you through to many of the key requisites underlying academic assignment s. Indeed, that is why there are sections introducing you to marking guides, and lecturers and course co- ordinators" expectations surrounding university assessments. Further, having personally experienced the paral ysing effects of procrastination and perfectionism, I have added some advice and guidance, towards the end of the book, for managing thesecommonly encountered obstacles to successful writing. A fi nal section provides a range of resources focusing
on grammar skills and the spelling of diffi cult words. While I have compiled, edited, and revised the book, in addition to cont ributing many sections, other staff, past and present, from the Palmerston North Student Learning Centre dese rve acknowledgement. Sections of this book derive from Anne-Marie Tokley"s (2002) Academic Writin g booklet, and Heather Kavan"s (2003) revised edition. Several pages of this book have been reproduced from th e Student Learning Centre"s resource handouts (prepared by Lisa Emerson, Grant Harris, Emmanuel Manalo, Yumi ko Olliver, and others whose names do not appear), in addition to Christopher Van der Krogt"s (2001)Academic Writing Study Guide.
Please forward any comments or suggestions on improvements for future ed itions to the Student Learning Centre, Massey University, Private Bag 11-222, Palmerston North, ph. (06) 350-2251, fax (06) 350-5760, or email
SLC-PN@massey.ac.nz . For more information on planning, drafting, and re vising academic assignments, Student Learning Centre staff from all three Massey University campuses are available for guidance and support.Writing is a diffi cult process. Hopefully, though, if you are able to read and refl ect on the ideas and suggestions
offered in this book, the process will develop into a more manageable an d rewarding experience. Best wishes on your journey into academic writing. It can be a life changing experie nce, as mine has been.Dr Natilene Bowker
