Description
Start with a wide view of Academic Writing. Book 1 introduces the decisions behind a clear Task 1 report and a developed Task 2 essay, then gives you a substantial bank of worked examples and further questions on which to practise those decisions yourself.
Its ten topic areas cover education and learning; technology and access; environment and resources; work and careers; families and communities; public services and spending; culture and language; transport and travel; consumer choices; and media and information. This breadth makes the volume a useful starting point for building ideas and comparing approaches across different subjects.
The 15 teaching lessons cover reading a task, selecting and grouping information, numerical precision, charts, processes, maps, paragraph development, essay structure, grammar and revision. An eight-week practice route helps turn the material into a regular programme.
