These include guided reading comprehensions as well as explanations and extensive practice in interpreting language signals – such as sentence structure, verb forms, discourse markers. The book contains strategies for developing a critical approach to writing, as well as explanations on how to summarise and paraphrase effectively, manage referencing and avoid plagiarism. Critical Reading and Writing in academic contexts can be used for a range of levels, with texts ranging from simplified press articles of general interest to authentic academic journal articles dealing with topical issues in education.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
