Academic Acts : Summary, Analysis, Synthesis, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

Academic Acts provides a streamlined approach to academic writing by exploring three crucial acts - summary, analysis, and synthesis - while covering the basic skills that students need to read, write, and research effectively.

Act I describes the conventions of academic and non-academic writing and the stages of writing.

Act II provides step-by-step guidelines for writing different types of summaries and includes a chapter on how to write concisely.

Act III focuses on critical thinking and rhetorical analysis.

Act IV provides guidelines for integrating quotations and paraphrase, MLA and APA documentation style, and includes an annotated student research paper.

The five readings at the end of the book illustrate different genres of writing across the disciplines, focusing on topics of interest to today's students.
