Being able to write a good essay or an academic paper is a key skill to master if you want to succeed at university. This course aims to provide students with a variety of basic skills with regard to academic writing and to develop the participants' awareness of essential features of composition. Working on selected language aspects and making effective use of monolingual dictionaries will help course members to avoid the pitfalls of mother-tongue interference, in turn helping to improve lexical and stylistic accuracy. In addition to writing papers and essays concerned with US topics, students will also practice other aspects of writing such as summarizing, paraphrasing, quoting, comparing and contrasting. This will be an in-person @uni course. Interested students should register via the e-mail address heinitma@hu-berlin.de. Deadline for all students: Thursday, April 13th |
