This document discusses how to improve the flow of information in writing by using cohesive devices. Cohesive devices like transition words, repetition of key elements, and ordering of previously and newly introduced information help create a smooth flow that makes writing easier to understand. Transition words signal relationships between ideas and require choosing the most appropriate one. Repetition of topics and use of pronouns and synonyms creates unity. Ordering information from what is already known to new information matches reader expectations. Using these cohesive devices can help writing have a clear and easy flow.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Information flow
- 2. Compare these two rivers: Which one is easier to navigate? Why?
- 3. You probably answered that this one is easier, right?
- 4. This river looks easier to navigate because it flows without interruption
- 5. It doesn’t mean that one cannot navigate this river. However, it is a lot more difficult.
- 6. Similarly, if we can make the information flow without interruption, we will have a text that is much easier to read and understand.
- 7. To accomplish that, there are language devices we can use. They are called COHESIVE DEVICES because they provide cohesion to your writing COHESION = easy, clear flow of information
- 8. “Cohesive devices are words, phrases or techniques that connect ideas. You may think of these devices as anchors that hold you ideas together” (Inside Academic Writing, p. 40-41)
- 10. Transition words between sentences
- 11. Repetition of key words, phrases or information from sentence to sentence.
- 13. Transition words can indicate several relationships: Here are some of them:
- 14. Using transition words requires practice and attention, because we have to choose the most appropriate transition for each situation. Remember to check a good dictionary! Also, punctuation is important: always use a comma (,) after a transition word!
- 15. Repetition of key elements Repeating some of the key elements of the paragraph helps create unity. You don’t have, however, to keep using the same word over and over. You should use pronouns and synonyms as well!
- 16. For example: Writing is not just about conveying ‘content’ but also about the representation of self. (One of the reasons people find writing difficult is that they do not feel comfortable with the ‘me’ they are portraying in theirwriting. Academic writing in particular often poses a conflict of identity for students in higher education, because the ‘self’ which is inscribed in academic discourse feels alien to them.) Excerpt from the blurb of: Writing and Identity - The discoursal construction of identity in academic writing Roz Ivanič, Lancaster University, 1998
- 17. Previously mentioned and new information An English language reader will expect that a text develops from something they already know or expect to the new information.
- 18. Now you try to create a smooth flow of information in you texts!
