Product Description
by Ashan R. Hampton (Author)
Graduate school is all about writing. Are you prepared to write 15-20-page academic papers? How about 200+ pages of a thesis or a dissertation? Do you know how to take a blank page and create a scholarly research project? Without strong writing skills, you will not succeed in your master's or doctoral program. "Preparing for Graduate School Academic Writing" assesses your readiness for graduate level learning through surveys, exercises, and succinct introductory lessons on the most essential aspects of graduate writing, such as standards, style, plagiarism, source evaluation, and online library research skills in a full-color workbook format. As a potential, current, or returning graduate student, you must become familiar with peer-reviewed articles, literature reviews, abstracts, references, and annotated bibliographies before advancing too far into your program of study. Otherwise, you might get overwhelmed by the expectations to immediately produce this kind of content with very little instruction. Therefore, equipping yourself for the rigors of academic writing is worth the extra time and effort to avoid stress, confusion or burnout.
