Hi, my name is John Connor Oskie. I'm an English as a foreign language instructor here at the National University of Science and Technology new species in this series of videos for the academic Writing Center, I will be talking about different concepts techniques and strategies related to the field of academic writing in English in this first video, I'd like to begin the series by providing a brief intro to the field of academic writing and answer the following questions: 1. what is academic English? 2. what is academic writing? 3. what are the general characteristics of academic writing? 4. why's academic writing important? According to dr. Karen oh well of the Cambridge University Language Center at its most basic academic English is the variety of the English language that we use to share research research refers to the process of answering a research question by creating an argument that is supported thru critical analysis and the use of evidence, we use academic English to reach a wide general academic audience in an attempt to persuade them that the argument we've created to answer our research question is an effective 1 there are two varieties of academic English spoken academic English and written academic English let's take a closer look at this 2nd variety when most people think of academic writing they think of thesis papers composed by grad students and research articles written by professional scholars while these are 2 great examples of academic writing the concept can be applied more generally to include a much wider variety of tasks and objectives as I mentioned in part 1, academic English is the variety of English used to convey research so academic writing is the variety of academic English used to convey research in writing that means there are many different kinds of academic writing from literature reviews to research papers to abstracts and lab reports while trying to compare and contrast all the many different types of academic writing is a tall order the most important thing to remember is that generally, each kind of academic writing has its own rules and conventions as such it's important to identify the rules and expectations for a particular genre of writing before starting to write I will discuss the rules and expectations for a few different genres in later videos, while the characteristics of a piece of academic writing may differ depending on the type few traits are common to most academic writing 1st there are focused and specific expectations when producing a piece of academic writing academic writing is used to answer research questions these questions are either provided by a course instructor or developed by the writer or researcher good academic writing starts w/ focused and specific questions to be answered 2nd academic writing emphasizes logical reasoning over emotional or sensory perceptions facts are more important than feelings writing clearly means thinking clearly, and so effective academic writing demonstrates clear critical thinking and the ability to make arguments stronger by supporting them w/ evidence 3rd academic writing must be clear English is both a low context and reader responsible language by this, I mean readers will depend on what's been written and believe it is the writers' job to make his argument as comprehensive as possible 4th academic writing must be coherent this means that there are logical connections between sentences 1 way to do this is to begin sentences w/ info that relates back to the previous sentence it also means that paragraphs are unified around a single idea and that all the info included in a piece of writing helps to create an effective argument used to answer the research question finally, the most effective academic writing follows a process while each writer will eventually develop his own unique process there are a few steps that most people follow when producing a piece of academic writing these steps include 1. analyzing the task. this involves clarifying your purpose for writing and identifying your target audience 2. planning your argument. next, you need to develop the main claim and decide how you will support this claim using evidence 3. research this is necessary to gather quality fact-based objective evidence that you need to create the argument you will use to support your main claim 4. start and engage in the writing and drafting process no good writing is done overnight it's important to produce multiple drafts and to both edit and proofread your writing while it is important to consider things like punctuation and proper spelling it is even more important to see how well you've structured your argument and the info in your writing to do this it's a good idea to ask for comments from peers and colleagues, finally there are many benefits of investing your time and energy in becoming a proficient academic writer academic writing is an important skill to master for a wide variety of professional and personal reasons 1st it allows writers to make individual contributions to the ongoing dialogues in their fields it allows individuals a greater voice and ability to participate in conversations about topics important to them additionally by mastering the skills necessary to become an effective academic writer a person also becomes an effective researcher and critical thinker finally, academic writing is a marketable skill that improves one's professional qualifications and makes one a more attractive candidate for potential employers so, in the end, we see that academic writing is about much more than just the act of writing which is itself not simply a skill but a collection of skills in addition to putting your thoughts on the pg effective academic writing involves critical thinking the ability to create a convincing argument and good research skills I hope this video has helped to improve your understanding of what people mean when they talk about academic writing if you have any questions, pls feel free to bring them to us at the Academic Writing Center once again, I'm John Capp NeuroSky see you next time

Well-delivered presentation....very clear and concise as what Academic English is as well as Academic Writing is all about . It translates ideas to further wisdom for a leaner. Thanks.
Hello classes have resumed, if you need help with managing your online classes and assignments. I can help you out, kindly reach out at profrubypiper@gmail.com
Clear explanation, but surely at 4:03 you misspoke: "English is both a low-context and reader-responsible language" . That should be low-context and *writer*-responsible language?
in my opinion as an undergrad student, academic English needs a SERIOUS overhaul. It is seemingly incomprehensible, almost like researchers don't want anyone to know what they're writing, using it as a sort of lock, the key to which is VERY specific knowledge about the field. I thought the point of academic writing was to distribute research information and advance a field of study. Well how can one expect to advance a field if nobody studies it because they can't understand whats going on??
This^. Nearly every assignment I do I have to decode someone else's mumbo jumbo word salad poetic writing BS just to make sense of it and get to the point.
Thanks a million for sharing this extraordinary opportunity!! Tell me the easiest way to become a great academic writer ¡ I really appreciate your time and you ❤️

Hi am a first year student and i find the content am studying difficult to understand at times. How can i correct with a procedure that won't be time consuming
Teacher i need help.. you can help me to writing academic raport. Please answer me... I'm kurdish.. i can't writeing physics academic raport very well. Please answer me.
This is a critic you can provide to any politician. Feelings are used purposefully, because most people are not capable of thinking critically and therefore are easier conviced by the use of feelings.
Theoretically, but the writing has very long sentences and complex sentence structure that make it very difficult to understand unless you're in that field. This is probably because research paper editors want short papers, which means writers have to use complex sentences to try and shorten what they're saying. The tradeoff is that it takes years of practice to understand and produce this type of writing
The problem with your steps is the choice of a main claim before doing research. Good critical thinking doesn't work with choosing your final conclusion before research. It only works to churn out useless papers. Unfortunately most people do it like this. Please don't perpetuate this problem.
Excellent point! Most writing textbooks tell students to brainstorm ideas about the topic and then find evidence to support those ideas, but this is counter to the scientific method. By contrast, the Inquiry Method has us move from Question to Evidence, then reasoning from that evidence to make claims that help us answer the Question.

Hi, my name is John Connor Oskie. I'm an
English as a foreign language instructor

different concepts techniques and

by providing a brief intro to the
field of academic writing and answer the
following questions:
1. what is academic English?
2. what is academic writing?
3. what are the general characteristics of academic writing?
4. why's academic writing important?
According to dr. Karen oh well of the Cambridge University
Language Center at its most basic
academic English is the variety of the
English language that we use to share research
research refers to the process of answering a research question by
creating an argument that is supported
thru critical analysis and the use of evidence, we use academic English to
reach a wide general academic audience
in an attempt to persuade them that the argument we've created to answer our research question is an effective 1
there are two varieties of academic
English spoken academic English and
written academic English
let's take a closer look at this 2nd variety when
most people think of academic writing
they think of thesis papers composed by
grad students and research articles
written by professional scholars while
these are 2 great examples of academic
writing the concept can be applied more
generally to include a much wider
variety of tasks and objectives as I
mentioned in part 1, academic English is
the variety of English used to convey
research so academic writing is the

convey
research in writing that means there are
many different kinds of academic writing
from literature reviews to research
papers to abstracts and lab reports
while trying to compare and contrast all
the many different types of academic
writing is a tall order
the most important thing to remember is that
generally, each kind of academic writing
has its own rules and conventions as

3rd academic writing must be clear
English is both a low context and reader
responsible language by this, I mean readers will depend on what's been written and believe it is the writers' job to make his argument as comprehensive as possible

3:44 “FACTS ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN FEELINGS” For any liberal out there.
This is a critic you can provide to any politician. Feelings are used purposefully, because most people are not capable of thinking critically and therefore are easier conviced by the use of feelings.
Hello. How can we download the video?
Google "ClipGab" and download it. You can copy the url and put it in the program and it will download it for you.
Any level students can do the ' Academic writing & Research' ?
Theoretically, but the writing has very long sentences and complex sentence structure that make it very difficult to understand unless you're in that field. This is probably because research paper editors want short papers, which means writers have to use complex sentences to try and shorten what they're saying. The tradeoff is that it takes years of practice to understand and produce this type of writing
