Counselling Tutorial on Academic Writing
Academic or scientific writing is different from everyday, conversational speech and informal writing (such as writing in your diary, writing a letter to someone, posting a reflection in the discussion forum, or sending an Email). It is a form of technical writing, with its own specific vocabulary and specific set of rules.
In the counselling courses you are required to write assignments that meet the criteria for academic writing.
This Tutorial on Academic Writing is to help you to achieve that goal. It will inform you as to what the facilitator and/or assessor will be looking for when they grade your assignments. It will provide you with the necessary knowledge and suggest additional sources you can explore.
Please carefully read through the tutorial and keep it handy when you are writing your assignment:
