Basic Skills
Because the ways in which academics communicate must often be learned, schools sometimes offer courses designed to teach or improve these communication skills. As a student in one of these courses, you will be taught advanced vocabulary, proper grammar, reading comprehension and verbal expression. You’ll learn how to write in a formal tone and politely address your reader, whether it is a professor or peer.
In addition to developing high-level communication skills, you might also learn about academia-specific topics, such as how to format a paper to Modern Language Association standards. You also might learn how to write book reviews, research papers and laboratory reports. One element of academic communication that you’ll usually learn in college is how to formulate a thesis or academic argument.
