STEP 6: PREPARE TO LEARN
The Nature of Writing is a comprehensive writing short course which can help you review skills such as sentence, paragraph and essay structure, grammar and other tips.
It is not compulsory to complete the course before you begin Year 1, however, we do highly recommend them, especially if you have not written before (or not for a long time). This course will significantly help you to develop your writing style and help you become a more confident and skilled academic writer.
You may use the resources that are available for free; however, if you wish to take the quizzes and record your progress, you will have to register and enrol for a small fee.
