10. It’s a wrap… Academic Writing: e.g. The skills explored in this pack help you to develop your communication, by considering what is appropriate for an academic audience and learning how to communicate effectively in that context when writing. It is always necessary to consider your audience and to tailor your communication accordingly. Constructing an Argument: e.g. Being able to present, analyse and evaluate an argument are fundamental skills for success both in higher education and in the professional world. Lectures, seminar papers, presentations, essays, articles and books all normally have an argument. In the course of your studies, you will be required to identify and understand other people’s arguments and to create your own. The purpose of this booklet is to help you understand the skills of argument and reasoning. These skills can also be applied in contexts in the professional or entrepreneurial world such as presenting, negotiating or arguing a case for a venture.

11. New resources Group Working: Working successfully with others in a group or a team, particularly one with a shared goal, involves a high level of self-awareness, excellent people skills and effective academic skills (such as planning, organising, etc.). Universities expect group participation on a weekly basis, in discussions through lectures and seminars as part of your learning and cognitive development. In addition, many universities set group work assignments to prepare students for the world of work. These various group activities can be a really engaging way to study because it provides the opportunity for an active and hands-on learning experience, an opportunity to learn with and from your peer group and to develop your social and emotional skills. However, under assessment conditions often student teams start to break down, struggling with conflicts between team members, differences of approach and motivation. This guide will explore some of the key characteristics and personal attributes required to work effectively within groups of people both at university and beyond, as well as targeting some specific academic skills.
