Supporting Student Success at All Stages of the University Journey
University of Chester vice-chancellor Eunice Simmons talks about effective strategies for widening access and embedding equity in higher education.
We’ve asked academics, authors, publishers and postdocs to share with us their advice on how to improve your academic writing and chances of getting published.
They cover everything from tips to establish a consistent writing practice like Jack London and how to find the hook in your work, to why your article might be rejected and how to bring in voices beyond just those writing in standard North American or British English.
