Writing Your First Year Report (Arts, Humanities & Social Sciences) Prerequisites
If you’re feeling lost and uncertain about writing your first-year report – or if you want to become a more effective writer – this course has two objectives in its overall aim of helping you to improve your ability to write about your research:
1) To help you understand:
- the requirements of the first-year report;
- the writing process;
- your work patterns as a writer.
2) To help you progress your writing by working through the techniques of:
- writing warm-ups, to quell your internal editor so that you write more freely;
- writing in layers, to help you develop an overall structure to your thesis, so that writing feels less daunting and you take a step towards ending procrastination.
