What can you do to encourage students and provide the tools and feedback they need?
Many students struggle with the transition to higher education academic writing which is why we've created a guide to help educators support students through the transition from school, Sixth Form or College to academic writing at university.
The ability to write well is a key skill for academic and future career success. By bridging the gap to higher education academic writing, students will be given the best chance to succeed.
The style of writing at GCSE or A-Level varies hugely from the level of writing that is expected from a university.
It's no surprise students struggle with adapting to this new way of conveying opinions, arguments and answers.
For mature students or those returning to education later in life, this gap in skill level will be even more pronounced.
We've pulled together research and tips to help students transition from school, college or university into one guide.
It also includes a checklist so you can check if your institution is following best practice and considering the impact this transition period has on your students.
