Using an array of examples and tools, Successful Academic Writing helps equip students to master the challenge of academic writing in graduate school and beyond.Authors Anneliese A. Singh, associate dean of diversity, equity and inclusion in the University of Georgia College of Education, and Lauren Lukkarila of the Georgia Tech Language Institute get into the nitty-gritty of structure, style and language, offering a window into the thought processes and strategies used by strong writers.
Topics cover more general how-to themes, such as selecting an audience or writing in a voice appropriate for a specific academic community but also wade deeply into academic themes of selecting the right peer-reviewed journal, navigating the publication process and composing sections of a qualitative, quantitative or mixed-methods article.
The book also features exercises to help the reader analyze a variety of texts, annotated excerpts from journals and end-of-chapter reminders with clear steps to take.
