This course presents graduate students with the opportunity to hone their written language skills at the highest level. The individual building-blocksof various essay types will be analysed and practised, with the aim of improving overall effectiveness. The focus is on purpose and strategy, style and cohesion, as well as on advanced language structures common to academic discourse. Attention will also be paid to pre-composition skills such as avoiding plagiarism, and to niggling issues such as punctuation, paragraphs and references. Contemporary academic and journalistic texts form the thematic basis, and students are expected to contribute with their own topics of interest. At the end of the course the practical language MAP is offered provided both Modules Ia and Ib are completed. Class limited to 15 participants.
