如何从高中模式的写作转变成学术写作?

1. 学术写作是学者写给另外的学者看的.

2. 学术写作是关于学术圈内的有研究价值的话题或者问题.

学术写作要对别人对某个话题或者问题有帮助,或者从其他角度来看待这个问题.

1. 学术写作应该给读者一个informed的论点.

在构建论点的时候, 你需要去分类你对这个问题的认识.或者说你需要去考虑哪些是已经被研究过的以及你需要从哪个角度研究.

What You Know

当你准备写一篇学术论文,你首先要考虑的就是你对这个问题了解多少.不同的论文对了解的深度也不同. 例如:一个关于Alfred hitchcok’s Rear Windown的短文(short paper)不会要求你对Hitchcock的其他工作都了解. 但是,如果让你写一篇关于电影的学术论文,你就需要了解很多.你需要去了解Alfred的其他作品以及各种事情.
