, Chapter 2 Academic Language support

Academic register:
 Use of disciplinary terminology
Knowing disciplinary terms means knowing the relevant
content in your discipline
 Dense use of general academic words
The Academic Word List (AWL) is useful collection om most
frequently found words in academic texts.
 Academic style
Often more complex than non-academic, because the
sentences are elaborated (more expanded). The use more
clauses, like when, wich, who and and.

Creating Coherence
Coherence is from importance for academic text, because this
makes a good and clear story.
Can be achieved in four main ways:
 Referring backwards to the thing the text discusses by
repeating its name in various names.
 Referring back to a section in the text with a ‘’label’’ (the
argument/the claim)
 Using the same point of view
 Using connectives to produce links in meaning.
