Abstract

V originále

Academic writing is an exciting and challenging subject – or at least, it can be. But it's too often taught to language learners as if it were just another application of grammar and vocabulary knowledge. In this workshop, I’ll share some activities and materials I use in my writing classes at Masaryk University which are designed to get students to see writing in a new light – as a way of asking the big questions and reaching boldly for answers.
