Writing In An Appropriate Style - Edition 3

Using Objective Writing


Most assignments require you to demonstrate academic objectivity and well argued approach to a subject matter, rather than an unthinking acceptance of it.


There are a number of ways to achieve this. Most importantly, throughout your studies you will develop your ability both to argue for something rigorously to and provide evidence for your argument. however, some simple language use can also demonstrate a measured and objective approach. For example, avoiding the first person (except in reflective aspects of an assignment, mentioned above) and by using 'hedging' language (see below).


First Person/Third Person


Check your course materials to see if you are asked to use the third or if you are allowed to use the first person.


Using the first person means writing: 'I think that ...', 'My opinion is that ...' . If the assignment is asking you for your reflective opinion on a subject, using the first person is okay. However, many essay-style assignments require you to avoid the first person and use the third person instead: 'He argues that ...', 'Smith's book overturned previous ideas on ...'.


Hedging Language


Hedging language means cautions language. So, rather than saying 'Parents have a greater influence over children's desire to... it might be preferable to say 'it can be argued that parents have a greater influence ...'.


Passive Language


Passive language is often used in discursive, essay-style assignments and active language is more often used in report-style assignments. However, that is not a hard and fast truth and you will find opportunities to swop between the two in either type of assignment.

• Passive language de-personalises the writing by allowing you to avoid personal pronouns and, if you don't know who is performing the action (i.e. who the subject of the sentence is), passive language allows you to avoid mentioning the 'who':"The seed pods were counted" instead of "I/We (sub) counted the seed pods"
• Passive language places the emphasis upon the result of an action rather than who is performing the action (the 'subject' of the sentences):"Children are more likely to hit their parents (sub) than their teachers" instead of "Parents (sub) are more likely to hit their children than are teachers".
• Active language allows you to be very clear about who is performing the action (i.e. in grammatical terms, who is the 'subject' of the sentence): "I counted the seed pods". It is, therefore, useful in report-style assignments.

Writing In An Appropriate Style - Edition 2

Using Reflective Writing in Professional Subject Areas

Some assignments (for example, some within Health and Social Care) require students to use their professional judgement to make an informed subjectives comment. You might be asked to provide your own reflections and opinion on a subject. However, even though you are being asked for your subjectives response to the topic, you will still be expected to provide evidence to support your position.

Self-reflective language

On many courses you may find that a part of your assignment is devoted to self-reflection and your own view of how you've develop during your studies ( a little like a learning-progress diary). The language you use in these self-reflective parts of an assignment will be different from that in the straight-forward academic part of assignment. You are expected to use the first person (e.g. 'I think that', 'My analysis is') and you may well be encouraged to give your subjective feelings about your progress.

Writing In An Appropriate Style - Edition 1

Use The Appropriate Writing Style


different academic subjects will demand different styles of writing from you. for example, some subjects require you to use the third person ('Smith argues that ...', or He said ...') and to achieve a certain amount of distance from the arguments you are writing about. Other subjects expect the first person ( 'I placed the seeds in full daylight ...'), for example, in the in the reports that you might write for a science or technology subject.


however, despite the differences, you will always be expected to use evidence and justification to back up what you write, rather than simply using your personal opinion. look at your course materials for guidance on what kind of style you are expected to use in your assignments.


when you write an academic assignment, you should aim to

• Use your own words. When you draw upon the ideas you have come across in your course, you should reformulate the words that the original authors wrote. In using your own words to express the argument, you avoid plagiarising  other people's work and you improve your understanding of what is being said.
• Support your arguments. In all types of assignment (other than creative writing assignment) you will be expected to write in a vigorously argued way. This means, rather than simply saying what your opinion is without explanation, you must give evidence and reasons that indicate how you've come to that conclusion or opinion.
