EXPANDINGYOUR KNOWLEDGE
Academic writing is a process that starts with posing a
question, problematizing a concept, evaluating an opinion
and ends in answering the questions posed, clarifying the
problem, and or arguing for a stand.
Purpose:
•Inform, argue a specific point, and to persuade.
The assumption is that your audience is composed of
people who are knowledgeable on the subject that you are
writing; thus, you have to demonstrate a thorough
understanding of your subject at hand.This makes
academic writing different from a personal narrative or a
creative essay, or a legal document, in which knowledge of
the writer is assumed to be greater than the audience.
Academic writing is thinking
You cannot just write anything that comes out to your mind.
You have to write in a language that is appropriate and formal but not too pretentious.
You have to consider also the knowledge and background of your audience.
You have to make sure that you can back up your knowledge and background with strong and
valid evidence.
Writing academic paper requires deliberate, thorough, and careful thought and that is why it
involves research.
Formal but not pretentious language is required
Misconception
Big and difficult words have to be used because ultimately the purpose of
writing is to engage the readers.
You are expected to engage the readers in a conversation by giving them
clear ideas and points to evaluate and question.
Your audience is varied and you have to make sure that when you write ,
you keep the readers in mind.
Ponder on the following questions:
1. What do you think are some problems that you or your classmates
encounter when you write academic papers?
2. What language do they use at home? Is it English or Filipino? Or any dialect
(Cebuano, Bikolano, Ilonggo, etc.)
3. Do you think they find it difficult to express their ideas in English if they
don’t speak the English language at home? How does this affect their
language and style?
4. Can you Identify some words that are direct translation from Filipino which
may affect the meaning of sentences? For example, saying “result to”
instead of “result in” or saying “open the lights” instead of “turn on the
lights”.
Output 1
Based on the results of your survey and your discussion of the features,
standards, and requirements of academic writing, write a three (3) page essay
on what you think is the state of academic writing in the Philippine context.
Use your personal knowledge, what you hear from your teachers, and on the
news, and what you have read from books to substantiate your opinion.

• Content: clarity of the purpose and the thesis statement, relevance of the
supporting points to the thesis statement, knowledge on the subject matter
• Structure: coherence and logical sequence of the ideas
• Language and Style: word choice, sentence construction
• Mechanics: grammar, punctuations, capitalization, formatting,
documentation
