Academic writing and business writing
Consider a research paper you have written for a past course. Describe the process by which you performed academic research and wrote academic papers in the past. If you could do that research paper over, how might you change your research process?
Describe and discuss the differences between a thesis statement, a topic sentence, an explanation, an illustration, and an example. When and how must you use all of these in effective academic writing? What parallels, or lack of parallels, do you see between effective academic and business writing?
