To fulfill their academic purposes in higher education, students
must mobilize knowledge learned in the classroom, but also obtained
individually and with access to a variety of sources, in
particular, the information resources available in their libraries.
To achieve an academic degree as master or doctor, information
resources grow in importance and meaning, since because from them a
great part of the theoretical and methodological support is
obtained for the pursuit of this purpose. The validation of their
learning is carried out in large part by the written presentation
of these academic works. The book reflects on the importance of
academic writing and presents methods and techniques for writing in
a grounded manner. The contributions that make up the book
Improving the Academic Writing Experience in Higher Education aim
to bring ideas and share experiences, broaden horizons and shed
some light on the landscape of academic writing. The different
formulations, perspectives, and approaches are divided into two
parts: the first one with a conceptual point of view, explaining
the importance of the development of academic writing within the
university and theorizing about the transformative impact of this
practice on the higher education' student. The second one seeks to
bring a more practical, diversified and comprehensive contribution
to the thematic and to respond to the challenge of professionals
related to the area -- particularly those involved in higher
education libraries, but not only -- and who work with the
transformation of information into knowledge. Through concrete tips
for writing appropriately in a university context, the focus is on
how and why to write well. The challenge that mobilized the
achievement of this book was to encourage better learning and
academic success, through awareness of a concrete action of
teachers, students, and librarians who, in higher education,
develop their activities in support of academic writing. We hope,
therefore, that this will be a catalyst for renewed learning around
this subject.
