Academic style covers a wide range of factors: it relates to your choice of vocabulary, the sentence structure you use, the way you link your ideas together both within a paragraph, and through different parts of your essay.
To assess your effectiveness as a writer, consider whether your writing:
1. Conveys your message with clarity, emphasis, precision, and style.
2. Uses variety in sentence structure for good stylistic effect.
3. Provides organized, coherent, logical, insightful development of the subject.
4. Supports your main points with specific, detailed, compelling examples and illustrations.
5. You commit no significant errors in grammar, usage, spelling, and punctuation.
6. Avoid noun strings.
7. Avoid unclear pronoun reference.
8. Use parallel constructions.
9. Construct your paragraphs according to the basic principles of academic writing.
10. Use transition words and phrases appropriately.
When you write your project, you have know about academic style - they are:
1. Don’t be wordy and complex. Express meaning directly and in as few words as possible to get your meaning across. Reduce unnecessary words.
2. Use clear and direct writing to convey your meaning.
3. Try to use active voice whenever you can.
4. Start with a substantive subject. “There” or “it” + a form of the verb “to be” often gives you a “round-about” sentence structure with too many words.
5. Avoid nominalizations.
