Academic writing language competence skills to improve the formulation and justification of their own ideas.

 

Writing effective academic texts (academic and scientific) involves a critical analysis of facts and previous studies. Characteristics of academic writing include a formal tone, use of the third-person rather than first-person perspective (usually), a clear focus on the research problem under investigation, and precise word choice. Like specialist languages adopted in other professions, such as law or medicine, academic writing is designed to convey agreed meaning about complex ideas or concepts for a group of scholarly experts.

​Academic works are executed in accordance with the requirements for structure and citation.
