What to do

Read the card, then write one question you would like the course to address about your own academic writing. Write in My notes.

Answer the analysis question in My notes.

⏱ 3–4 min

Concept: This course supports research students in developing clear, evidence-based academic writing at university level. The focus is argument, revision, and portfolio assessment—not exam-style drills.

Mechanism: You will draft, receive feedback aligned to evaluation criteria (FOUR BASES), and revise. Each unit builds skills through reading, practice tasks, and reflection. The goal is transferable skill, not a single high-stakes performance.

Expectations: attend sessions, complete in-class tasks, and engage with the diagnostic and assignment sequence.

Worked example: A typical sequence: read about thesis clarity → complete an MCQ checkpoint → draft a short piece → receive feedback → revise using FOUR BASES.
