Study Essay Writing Strategy
Analyse your essay titles and use this to
shape (structure) your essays.
Write in
your own words, following the
plan you made when analysing the title. Use your own mind to
construct the issues, instead of following a book, a lecture or your notes.
Bring in
quotations from and
other references to texts to support your
arguments. Explain the quotations you use. Quotations should
illustrate, not carry, your essay.
A
good introduction, with an
outline, a
summary
and an
argument statement will improve any essay considerably.
Study Referencing
Start referencing as soon as you begin to draft

a
bibliography and

things you do not do in the Harvard
System. - Reference mainly to books, articles and internet
sources recommended by the course - Where you
use internet
sources, these should also be referenced following the
key word/number
rule. Reference all quotations, but
reference more than quotes.

thinking
