We explored the following concepts:
- Patterns of Organization
- thesis/topic sentence
- Logical Relationships between Ideas
- Transitions
On this page, briefly reflect on concepts you learned regarding academic writing. What are common patterns of organization? Why might academics value these organizational patterns? How do academic writers guide readers through evolving ideas? Why are transitions helpful?
Then describe an assignment you completed in which you practiced working with organization and transitions. To finish this page, embed that assignment either by copying it below, hyperlinking to it (if it’s accessible in a space like Google Drive), or embedding it as a PDF.
