Looking for some tips on writing your assignments? Look no further!

In order to write good assignments, students should start by identifying key concepts and terms that they must understand, then work through the assignment carefully, step-by-step, referring back to their notes as needed. 

  • Gather Information about your Assignment
  • Refine and Focus your Directive - Before you start your assignment, read it through once and ask yourself, "What am I being asked to do?" Highlight and underline the key verbs and any other important words.
  • Get Organised
  • Write the First Draft - Effective technical writing skills are essential for writing assignments at the University. Without good writing skills, you will be unable to convey your knowledge and ideas in a professional manner. You can improve your technical writing skills through practice, by paying attention to language, style, and readability, understanding your audience and purpose for writing, and revising and proofreading before submitting work.
  • Revise Your Work
  • Edit Your Work
  • Find Your Voice

Writing assignments are a big part of university life. Whether you're writing an essay, report or literature review.
