Unlike a personal essay, which can draw on the writer’s experience and values, an academic essay must draw on credible evidence.
  • You might be asked to respond to a text by doing a close reading — a careful study of the words the author chose to use;
  • You might be assigned a research paper that involves citing direct quotations or statistics from peer-reviewed academic journals.
  • An academic argument is not a squabble, a difference of opinions, or an attorney’s courtroom statement. The author of an academic argument is more like the judge, who, after hearing out the best arguments in favor of various possible solutions, supports the best one.Any given academic argument on a topic is part of a discussion that respects multiple viewpoints (as long as those viewpoints are backed by credible evidence).

These skills are essential if you want to improve academically. In the future reading, I will try my best to raise my doubts or argument and then think about it.Especially the multi-angle and multi-content thinking problem]]> 2018-06-04 18:19:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265464871 jc26891 https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265466511 2018-06-04 18:25:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265466511 jc26891 https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265467007 2018-06-04 18:27:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265467007 jc26891 https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265467688 2018-06-04 18:30:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265467688 jc26891 https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265718911 2018-06-05 18:46:43 UTC https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/265718911 yl3260 https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/266296353 2018-06-08 12:07:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jc26891/sqnbd3edgfgn/wish/266296353
