Number cite 1. Study skills 1. For teachers of writing-intensive classes From assessment studies conducted by The University of Hawai‘i Mānoa Writing Program Writing & Research Students in our assessment studies tell us that some of their most positive learning experiences involve writing and research. This is what students tell us they like about research projects: Meeting the challenge of becoming an "expert" on a topic.Searching for answers to real questions.Being surprised by the depth of information and quantity of materials they uncover.Working with guidance from experienced researchers--a special opportunity at UH Mānoa. Research strategies students learned in high school are often inadequate to college tasks.
Underclassmen typically apply a research procedure they learned in high school: select a topic (often broad and "safe"); check out books from a library; make notes on index cards; organize the information in an outline; and write a report from the note cards and outline.

The Internet TESL Journal Roberto Criollorcriollo [at] hotmail.comBenemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (Puebla, Pue., Mexico) This paper presents an application of Genre Analysis on academic writing instruction. More specifically, techniques and steps for enabling ESF/EFL learners to organize and develop literature reviews are presented and explained. Introduction Academic writing is usually regarded as one of the most demanding and complicated tasks in higher education. The problem becomes doubled when the writing needs to be done in a language that is not our own (Almeida, 1984; Aghbar, 1990; Atatri, 1984a; Belcher, 1990; Cruickshank and Yates, 1990).
In fact, most institutions in the United States comprise Language Centers where international and bilingual students are placed for remedial work in the language, especially in writing (Collier 1987 and 1989, Cummins 1981 and 1994). Academic writing problems may be partly due to language proficiency. Developing the Outline Verbs: Harvard: Nottingham. Harvard: UEL.

Depending on the nature of the sentence/paragraph that is being written, references to sources may be cited in the text as described below: Additional support on how to introduce such references is available from Student Support in their guide.
When making reference to an author's whole work in your text, it is sufficient to give the name followed by the year of publication of their work: When writing for a professional publication, it is good practice to make reference to other relevant published work. This view has been supported by Cormack (1994). However, where you are mentioning a particular part of the work, and making direct or indirect reference to this, a page reference should be included: Cormack (1994, pp.32-33) states that "when writing for a professional readership, writers invariably make reference to already published works".
