500 _aIt is correct to presume that writing is diffi cult. Of the four skills in language— listening, speaking, reading and writing—writing is considered to be the most difficult skill to learn. When it comes to academic writing or research writing, using appropriate language and idiom is the key to a good research paper. A Course in Academic Writing (Second Edition) tries to teach the basics of academic writing. This edition is more student-friendly and is written in a lucid style. The examples used follow a task-based approach. There are illustrative sample writings which are cross-disciplinary. It is hoped that students will be able to practice on a small task and then transfer these skills to their own works.
